Crafted in hand-cast pressed paper, the piece demonstrates Wess’s skill in creating depth and dimension: darker tonal areas on the surface give the illusion that the abstract shapes are raised, resulting in a subtle three-dimensional visual effect.

The work is pencil-signed by the artist in the lower right, titled “Post Modern” at center, and numbered 400/950 at lower left. Presented in its original wood frame with glass protection, the piece carries a timeless postmodern aesthetic ideal for contemporary, minimalist, or design-focused interiors.
