Plot

18 works

A rectangular sheet of dark brown handmade paper with visible fibers and small bits of organic material embedded throughout.
A hand-drawn sketch of a wave composed of cursive, overlapping handwritten words in varying sizes that create the illusion of movement and depth, on a white background.
A minimalist artwork featuring a small, centrally placed piece of paper with typewritten text on a large white background. The text appears to be dictionary definitions of the word "plot," with the artist's signature at the bottom right corner.
A square piece of paper with scribbles and markings centered on a larger white background. The markings resemble a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols, creating an abstract design. The paper has a yellowish tint, and there is a signature at the bottom left corner.
A photograph centered on a white background featuring a dense cluster of green trees. The photo has high contrast, with the trees appearing very dark against the bright surroundings. There is a signature at the bottom right corner of the white background.
A photograph centered on a white background featuring a close-up of a person's back with a tattoo of geometric patterns and lines. The image has a high-key exposure with the tattooed area as the focal point against a largely overexposed surrounding.
A small, centered photograph on a large white background depicting a figure in dark clothing standing in a rocky terrain, with a signature on the bottom left corner.
A photograph centered on a white background featuring a close-up view of the ground with scattered pieces of broken glass and debris. The image has a signature on the bottom left and is numbered on the bottom right.
A small, centered image of a forest scene with bare trees and underbrush is surrounded by a large white border. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom left corner of the border.
A blurred photograph of a person in motion, carrying a birdcage, set against a forest background, with the image surrounded by a large white border containing the artist's signature in the bottom left corner.
