Work Description: 
Hovering in the work's top center quadrant, two circular forms float—one on top of the other—amidst a matte black field. The upper form is filled with a bright yellow pigment and the form below is painted with a vivid blue. Both forms are surrounded by a perimeter of unpainted bare canvas, which separates them from their dark surroundings. An dark gray rectangular form slides into view at the top right corner, and a small brown form is just visible at the bottom left corner bordered by an unpainted canvas perimeter.
