About this work

This looks like a piece of cloth made from torn paper and yarn. The left side is mostly gray strips of paper, all different shades. The right side has darker colors—black, brown, and a few red and purple lines. The edges are frayed, like it’s been worn or ripped. The artist used simple materials like paper and yarn, not fancy paint. The colors are muted, but the frayed edges add a rough, handmade feel. If you like this style, look up Peter Caldwell Millett for more of his work.
