About this work

This drawing shows three boxy shapes stacked in odd ways. Some look like they’re floating, with empty spaces inside. The lines are simple and precise, making the forms feel solid yet confusing at the same time. The artist used only pencil and paper, playing with how our eyes see depth. The bigger shape on the right has a strange corner that makes it hard to tell which way is up. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
