David Jeffrey

Artist, American, born 1956

The image shows a rectangular shape in the center composed of translucent, layered sheets with faint horizontal and vertical lines creating a grid pattern. The abstract composition resembles a lightly wrinkled and worn parchment or an ancient map with slight discoloration. The overlapping layers and muted tones suggest depth and fragility.
