A vertically oriented, high-contrast lithograph features overlapping urban and human forms. On our left, fire escapes and signs layer over a city skyline and a large, open eye. Below, a figure with outstretched limbs falls. In the lower right, two profile faces overlap; one looks upward while the other looks right. A dark, grainy mass fills the upper right, looming over a dense, surreal environment.
