James Rosenquist

The Prickly Dark
1987

Black and white abstract photograph featuring a collage of various sharp and pointed shapes that resemble parts of plants or metallic objects. The composition is dynamic, with elements that appear to be cut and layered over each other, creating a sense of depth and complexity. There is a signature at the bottom right corner and a title at the bottom left corner, indicating the artwork's name and the artist's edition notation.
