Label TextSuzanne Bocanegra uses drawing as a means of observation and understanding. This work is based on Joachim Anthonisz Wtewael's 1605 painting, Kitchen Scene with the Parable of the Great Supper. Bocanegra's drawing is not a direct translation of the Dutch painting but rather an accounting of the formal components, like foreground and background.
