Joseph Nechvatal
Hyper-Body II1988

Not on view
Horizontal print with dense, tangled dark lines over warm salmon and cool slate-blue color fields, with a dark rectangular form near the center bottom and two thin horizontal lines along the lower edge
Mixed-media composition in deep purples, browns, and pale amber, with dense layered mark-making suggesting a wooded landscape. A pale vertical shaft of light dominates the center, flanked by dark tree forms. A bench and small seated figure emerge from the lower middle ground in silhouette.
