Condition

This work appears in very good condition overall. There are some light dust accretions beneath the surface of the Plexiglas. There is an undulation to the sheet which appears inherent to the artist's working method and nature of the medium. The sheet is hinged verso the matte intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexi.
