Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There are 20 individual carbon sheets collaged together. The entire sheet is hinged on the reverse to the backing board in numerous places. There is lifting and undulation to the sheet. There is crinkling and unevenness to the surface texture due to the artist's choice of medium and working method. Creases in the top left and bottom right corners and two pinpoint holes in the top left corner are noted. There is hairline cracking in the pigment and some associated pigment loss in the upper center quadrant of the work. Framed under Plexiglas.
