David Hockney working on the drawing "Carlos" at his studio in Paris 1975.
In his Paris studio in 1975, David Hockney is captured from over the shoulder as he works on the drawing "Carlos." Dressed in a patterned sweater with a striped collar, he holds a pencil to a large sheet of paper where the subject's face begins to take shape. Carlos himself sits in the out-of-focus background, looking towards the artist. The shallow depth of field and grainy quality of the film create an intimate atmosphere, focusing attention on Hockney and the act of creation.
