This drawing is called *Nemesis*. It’s by Marie Sivak, made in 2005. It’s a drawing, not a painting—good to keep in mind. The work belongs to a series called *Lacing Atropos*. The figures are wrapped tight in thin lines. It nods to Greek myth, where Atropos cuts life’s thread, but the drawing doesn’t spell it out. If you like this, look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
