About this work

This print shows a dark, tangled shape on the left—maybe a horse or a cloud—with rough, scratchy lines. On the right, a thin red stripe cuts across a grid of light green squares. The red stripe looks like it’s been painted over the woodcut marks, as if it’s breaking through. The artist used a woodcut method, where the image is carved into wood and then inked. The red stripe might be added later, like a surprise detail. Want to see more woodcut prints? Try looking up *woodcut*.
