Stencil

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown and white stencil artwork by artist Stencil. Dark brown rectangular piece with rounded corners on a white background. The artwork features a series of vertical lines and floral designs cut out of the brown material, creating a stencil-like effect. The brown material has a rough texture and appears to be made of paper or cardboard. The vertical lines vary in width and are spaced unevenly, with some areas featuring thicker lines and others featuring thinner lines. Three sections of the artwork feature floral designs cut out, showcasing wavy lines and curved shapes. The overall design is symmetrical, with identical patterns on either side of the center.
