Description

A close-cropped, monochrome composition showing the lower half of a face and a raised hand with fingers curled near the chin, rendered in stark black, white, and grey with halftone dot patterns. The garment and background are filled with dense linear map-like or circuit-like motifs and small graphic symbols, giving the surface a fragmented, collaged texture. "Bijing Now 01," by Toru Ishii, 2016, Digital Dyeing on Silk.
