Description

Subject Matter:

This work comes from one of the artist's Echo series'; there are three sets. From references to the Big Bang to images of pollen, these works open up new narratives. As with much of the artist's work, this drawing also represents the relationship between humans and nature. The specks of graphite also bring to mind images such as swirling dust particles, the Milky Way, and swarms of insects.

Physical Description:

This drawing has a series of marks and small objects drawn into an amorphous shape of two spheres, one small, on the left and one larger, on the right. The print is signed and dated in pencil (u.l.) "EC 08".
