This print is split in half like a book. On the left, a dark figure stands with a tall staff, covered in white dots. Its face is hidden. On the right, a bright red figure leans forward, also dotted, with long hair and a flower in its hand. The background glows yellow with white lines radiating out. The dots look like tiny stitches or beads. The artist used bold colors and simple shapes to make strong contrasts. Look up Shahzia Sikander next to see more of her work.
