'Net-Grid Study: Horizon', features silkscreened calligraphy by El-Sayegh’s father, alongside a silkscreened newspaper article and a printed fragment of an American currency note. The artist incorporates currency in her paintings for both their symbolic and aesthetic qualities, reflecting her interest in systems of order and circulation.
The palette of the work is that of a bruised horizon, which is where the painting takes it title.
