About this work

This sketchy black-and-white print shows a jumbled, shadowy figure with a horse’s head. The horse’s mane swirls wildly, and its body twists into a tangled mess of lines. In the background, faint shapes and marks blur together like smoke or scribbles. The artist used layers of shading to make the figure feel heavy and chaotic. The lines look both drawn and scratched into the surface, giving it a rough, urgent feel. Check out how this piece uses etching.
