Spitbite
2001

A blue monochromatic artwork depicting stylized, abstract figures resembling parts of human anatomy with a technical drawing aesthetic. The image includes a form that resembles a cross-section of a head with a brain, and another form that appears to be a limb or organ, both connected by thin lines. Below the figures is a faux technical data sheet with various labels such as "DRAWN TITLE," "PRODUCT," and "SCALE BUILT," suggesting a conceptual blueprint design.
