Four abstracted vignettes with animal forms

This monochromatic print, by Wadhah Al-Ward, is rendered in black ink upon a brown surface. Four distinct rectangular vignettes outlined in black stretch horizontally across the composition. Each segment contains what appear to be various abstracted hybrid animal forms with human as well as bird-like qualities. There is also a mixture between form and patterning as eyes, heads, and limbs devolved into swirls and zigzags.
