About this work

This image is a flat sheet of bright orange and yellow. Tiny dots and lines fill the whole space, packed tight. The edges have a rough, uneven border like it was cut by hand. The artist used a printing method where ink is pressed onto stone or metal. The result looks like a busy, repeating pattern with no clear shapes. Look up lithography to see how this print was made.
