This isn't art because it is empty and has no creative thing on it or something.
Thats where you're wrong. theres verrrrryyyyy faint lines 2/3s down the work. very abstract, but still art
Let's examine this work.
- Use the "Zoom" tool to inspect the surface for subtle variations. (To activate the Zoom tool, hover the mouse/cursor over the image and click on the "+" sign that appears.) In the lower third of the paper you may see faint lines, making it look like the paper is scored, folded, or has a slightly dimensional quality.
- Find more information on the "Details" tab. The physical description states that we're looking at a "blind intaglio of triangle and rectangle." In printmaking, a "blind" print is made without ink. Paper can be debossed or embossed by using a plate (or other form) and applying pressure.
