Work Description: 
Two similarly-sized jagged forms float across the surface of this composition, which is dominated by canvas Still left unpainted. A horizontally-oriented orange form hovers in the bottom right corner. Above this, a more vertically-oriented black form sits in the top left/center quad. A much smaller crimson red shape is painted to the left of the black form in the top left corner, and a white form is barely visible at the top left edge.
