About this work

This looks like a wall made of small, uneven paper panels. Some panels are stacked vertically, others horizontally, creating a messy grid. The paper is mostly beige, but there are red lines and shapes—like brushstrokes or scribbles—on almost every piece. In the center, a few objects hang: small red and brown shapes on strings, like tiny flags or dried leaves. The red marks on the paper look hand-drawn, almost like someone was experimenting with color and texture. The whole thing feels a little chaotic, but the way the panels fit together makes it hold as one piece. If this style of painting interests you, look up *gouache* to see how artists use it.
