The plastic world has won

The sheet is divided into four square panels, each a close-up still life of animal bones or a skull tangled with spoons, forks and a shallow bowl or plate, seen from above. Fragments of bone and cutlery interlock and overlap within each frame, cropped tightly so the objects fill the whole square.

Worked entirely in heavy black pencil or crayon hatching against the pale ground of the paper, each panel builds its forms from dense, overlapping strokes with almost no gradation. The repeated, fragmented arrangement of bone and utensil across the four panels gives the print a bleak, unsettled undertone despite its restrained, purely graphic means.
