Sueño
1992

A detailed sketch of a human figure in a fetal position on a textured paper background. The figure is drawn with dark, heavy strokes, emphasizing the musculature and form, with the head resting on one arm while the other arm's hand is near the face. The artwork conveys a sense of vulnerability or introspection.
