This work shows four sheets of paper side by side. Each has a simple line drawing of a chair. The chair’s shape is crisp but spare, drawn with fine pencil lines. Durant used cross-hatching to fill the background. That technique gives weight to the empty space around the chair. The drawings focus on everyday objects, not fancy ones. Want to see more like this? Look up Sam Durant.
