A solitary figure sits on a fantastical, mushroom-shaped island above still water, watching a splash send concentric ripples across the surface. Overhead, an immense sun-like disc radiates curling, eye-shaped forms through a sky filled with extraordinarily fine linework. The contrast between intricate patterns and open water gives this black-and-white psychedelic scene a quiet, dreamlike intensity.
By Key Mack, from the Emotional Hieroglyphic Studies series. The lower margin carries the title Part #4-C, a ©1967 date, and the Print Mint imprint with its 830 Folger, Berkeley, California address. The artist’s printed signature and “66” appear within the image. Unframed poster on paper.
Condition: Noticeable creasing and wrinkling across the sheet, especially in the lower half, with edge wear, small edge nicks, and a small paper loss along the top edge. Light discoloration and scattered marks are visible. Please see the full-sheet and detail photos for condition.
