Artist, American, born 1956

The image displays a series of straight lines forming rectangular segments on a pale surface. The composition resembles a folded fabric or wax paper, with the lines indicating creases or divisions. The pattern could evoke a neatly folded map or a large sheet of parchment, with variations in shading and scattered specks contributing to its texture.
