IBRAHIM MAHAMA | Untitled (in two parts)

Acquired directly from the artist by the present owner during the artist's residency at Gasworks (London) in 2013

Please note that this work is a diptych and is comprised of two panels. There is minor fraying visible to the yarn throughout the work, however this is very much in line with the nature of this material. There are minor rips visible to the cloth in places, particularly to the corners of the covered wooden panels. There is an area of residue visible within the top left-hand corner of the one of the panels. Please note that the small orange plank of wood that protrudes from the right hand panel exhibits a break that has been repaired using glue. The plank appears to be stable.
