Wrapped Statues, Sleeping Faun, Project for Die Glyptothek, Munich (S. 183)

It represents the artists' iconic concept of wrapping and transforming familiar objects, in this case proposing an intervention for Munich's Die Glyptothek.

Medium
Collotype and screenprint in colours with collage of polyethylene and twine and hand-colouring in crayon, on 3-ply Rupaco Chipboard, the full sheet.
