Work Description: 
Thick, red paint covers this giant composition from edge to edge. A wire-thin black form hovers along the left edge, and a thin white lifeline is strung through the painting just left of center from top to bottom. A darker red passage enters from the bottom edge just to the right of the lifeline, and a darker maroon form peeks in from the top left edge. Gray paint is placed along the top right corner.
