About this work

This print shows rough, angular shapes in black and white. The lines look like they were cut with a knife, not a brush. The shapes stack up like building blocks, not flat paper. Tsakiris worked this way in the 1980s. He started with engravings but moved to heavy metal and stone. His prints feel like tiny versions of those later sculptures.
