Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image "Piece" by the artist is a rectangular piece of fabric with a green background and a gold floral pattern. The fabric has a thick, off-white border around it that is discolored and worn, with some brown and red stains. The green background of the fabric has a textured appearance. The gold floral pattern is made up of intricate designs and shapes, including flowers, leaves, and vines. The pattern is repeated throughout the fabric in a random, organic way. There is a small white label at the bottom of the fabric with black text.
