Kiki Smith employs complex intaglio printmaking techniques including aquatint and mezzotint to build dense, layered surfaces with meticulous tonal gradations, closely paralleling Celmins's sophisticated multi-plate approach and obsessive attention to texture and pattern.

Sandback's work shares the precise geometric and concentric structural logic found in this piece, using restrained repetition and careful spatial mapping to create abstract compositions that feel both technical and contemplative.

Sol LeWitt's print and drawing work extensively explores concentric geometric patterns built through systematic repetition, sharing this piece's quality of transforming strict geometric rules into visually intricate and meditative abstract compositions.
