Untitled (Statue, Compass and Tree Trunk)
1992

A framed artwork featuring two separate images side by side. On the left is a close-up photo of a textured surface with patterns that resemble ripples on water. On the right is a photo of a classical sculpture detail, showing part of a serene face and a compass against a green scroll-like element. Both images are mounted on a white background with artist's signatures at the bottom.
