Condition Report
These works are in good condition overall. The edges of each sheet are irregular due to having been torn or cut by the artist. There are scattered hard and soft creases throughout as well as tears and losses to each sheet, most notably along the edges and corners, inherent to the artist's working method and choice of found media. There are scattered areas of soiling and stray media throughout the surface. Two of the works feature tape residue on the extreme edges.
