Condition:

The work is presented float-mounted, attached to its backing from the four corners, framed under glass in a brown wooden frame. The sheet is slightly undulated, deemed inherent to the mounting method. The edges of the sheet are deckled, inherent to the artist’s use of materials. There is minor creasing to the sheet in places, most noticeably to the corners and toward the extreme edges, only visible on close inspection. Otherwise, there are no apparent condition issues with this work.
