About this work

This drawing shows a wall covered in colorful graffiti-style letters. The letters are thick, layered, and made from cut-out paper in bright blues, reds, and purples. Below the letters, there’s a wavy purple base with pink and white splashes, like dripping paint. A small sketch of a face is tucked into the corner near the bottom. The artist called this a "close study of the wildstyle burner," which is a term for someone who creates complex, fast graffiti letters. The words around the edges hint at themes like "new eminence" and "21st-century style." Next, check out *The Museum of Modern Art* to see more works like this.
