This drawing shows two striped figures tangled together. They’re wearing matching pink-and-black stripes like prison uniforms, but their bodies are stretched and twisted into odd shapes. One figure’s hand is raised like they’re waving, while the other kneels awkwardly. The stripes wrap around their limbs in wavy lines, almost like they’re melting. The paper is plain, and the whole scene feels dreamlike and off-kilter. Want to see more by the artist who made this? Check out Roberto Aizenberg.
