Kiki Smith, David Wojnarowicz

Untitled (Psychiatric Clinic)
1983

An abstract artwork featuring a central red ink blot with various black line drawings scattered around it. The drawings include human figures, faces, and objects such as a chair and a bird, all seemingly unrelated and floating around the ink blot. A black line runs horizontally through the center of the image, intersecting the ink blot. The artwork has a spontaneous and surreal quality.
