COMMENTS
Here we see human bodies struggling against a background of stone.
“This experimental image was made by spraying tusche onto crushed transfer paper. Wayne destroyed most of the impressions in her possession in 1971. The technique of using crumpled paper, first seen here, became an important part of her repertoire for the next few years.”
