Work Description:
This work is divided into three horizontal bands of color. More than half of the upper area of the composition is covered with a rich black pigment, below which lies a loosely-painted thin band of pale yellow and a band of golden brown at the bottom edge. A long black shape enters the composition from the bottom left of the canvas, interrupts the continuous bands of color, and runs at a slight diagonal over to the right until jutting upwards at a much steeper angle and ending near the top right corner of the composition. Two white dots are at the top of this sharp black form, and three long red wispy lines fall from its tip down off the edge of the canvas at the bottom right. A single green stalk-like form rises from the bottom edge of the work behind the primary black form and splits the brown and yellow bands of color.
