Horizon
1990

A black and white etching of a surreal room with exaggerated perspective. The room has a high ceiling with a single hanging light fixture and is lined with circular patterns on the floor. Two large, realistic eyes are embedded in the walls on either side, giving the impression of the room being watched. The artwork has a signature in the bottom right corner.
