Time Samples 

"Time Samples" is a work by Alison Knowles, a noted American artist born in 1933, whose work has been influential in the development of Conceptual art and Fluxus. This piece exemplifies her exploration of chance and process as artistic methods. The black ink drawing of a rake, seemingly unfinished, is set against a pale, textured background that features irregular, dark splotches of ink. This simple yet evocative composition invites viewers to ponder the nature of time and the fleeting nature of artistic creation.
