"Emptiness" (2021) Original Drawing by Marya

This work was done with a ballpoint pen on office paper A4 which is glued with tape. I deliberately use the simplest and most non-artistic materials. I want to emphasize the lightness, simplicity, accessibility and illusion of contemporary art.
The folds of the fabric become the primary expressive element: they resemble a relief that captures the body’s tension while simultaneously rendering it faceless. The human figure here almost disappears, giving way to form and surface. The moiré texture of the surface adds a sense of distance—as if this were not merely a figure, but an exploration of a state of isolation, fixed and mapped onto coordinates.
This work consists of individual sheets of A4 paper, which are glued together with adhesive tape. Along the gluing line, the picture can be bent and folded like an accordion, like a brochure. I am using this opportunity to mail this picture. When you receive this picture, it will be folded like a brochure A4. The picture must be expanded and placed in a graphic frame. This can be easily done by yourself or in any baguette studio.
