Print
A vertically oriented print features distorted, monstrous forms rendered with grainy, charcoal-like textures. Jagged, toothy maws and a large concentric eye define heads facing right. Below, a bulbous creature peers left amidst frenzied splatters. White, branch-like patterns splay across the lower portion, overlapping the dark, speckled background. Handwritten text and numbers mark the bottom margin.
