About this work

This is a lithograph print, one of 71 in a portfolio. It's a grid of boxes with Japanese writing in them. The boxes are different sizes, some big, some small. The writing is in purple ink on a light beige background. There's a big box in the middle with lots of writing, and smaller boxes around it with less writing. The writing seems to be a mix of big letters and small letters. Some of the boxes have numbers in them, like "567" or "418". It's hard to tell what the writing says, but it looks like it might be a list or a poem. If you want to learn more about this kind of art, you could check out The Museum of Modern Art.
