About this work

This sketch shows a long wooden wall with ten small, square compartments. Each one has a circle inside it, and a tiny figure walks past them. Below, there’s a smaller drawing of a box with a lightbulb and a photo inside, plus handwritten notes about sizes and materials. The notes explain this is a "wall box" with blinking lights and photos—like a slow-motion walk seen through peepholes. The artist used ink on lined paper, marking measurements in inches. Next, check out Sol LeWitt to see how he turned simple ideas into bold art.
