WM
*WM* is a monumental work by Richard Serra executed in etching and aquatint on two sheets of Watson handmade paper. The piece exemplifies Serra's commanding approach to printmaking, utilizing the deep, velvety blacks and rich tonal contrasts achievable through aquatint to create an imposing, weighty presence. The expansive format of the full sheets reinforces Serra's characteristic preoccupation with scale, materiality, and the physical and psychological weight of form.
