The objects appear to be broken up pieces of something greater. Pieces of a greater machine, here re-assembled in hard angular lines and triangular blocks, in abstracted form. The image is a close up, the ink on cotton comes up in rough grainy scratches of shadow. Shades of grey with highlights of blue. Dark angles with patches and corners of pure black. Hard dark lines which meet with white surfaces, blend into grey.
