"State Tablecloth II" (2009) by Pavlo Makov is a large-scale work that depicts a grid of black silhouettes resembling forks. These are arranged in two rows at the top and bottom of the canvas against a stark white background. The rough texture of the canvas, reminiscent of a tablecloth, enhances the overall effect. The artwork explores themes of repetition, uniformity, and societal structures, while also referencing the act of communal dining.
