Work Description: 
A massive crimson field covers the majority of this monumental horizontal canvas. An ochre band with a thin black form along the left edge runs along the painting's left edge from top to bottom, and a gray vertical form with an orange lifeline down its center splits the red field just right of center. A black vertical line runs through the red field to the right of the larger gray form.
