Description: Untitled
graphite on printed paper and pins
11 x 17 in. (27.9 x 43.2 cm.)
Drawn in 1995. A line begins from a point at the lower center of the paper. The end of this line generates two lines at 45 degree angles. The ends of these two lines generate two more lines each, also at 45 degree angles, and so on, up to the 15th generation. Each generation of lines is 1/8 inch shorter than the previous generation, and each line is numbered as to its generation.
