Work Description:
Colorful, flickering forms and lines float amidst a deep maroon field which covers the majority of the composition. An irregularly shaped, flat black form hovers in the top right corner and down along the right edge. Several smaller black forms seem to have broken free from the larger black form and float helplessly into the maroon void at the top right. A gray form sits in the bottom left corner and has an orange lifeline reaching up through its core into the maroon pigment. A teal patch is placed directly above this orange lifeline within the top area of the gray form. Two small intermingling forms in gray and bright yellow twist together near the top center. Two blue and gray parallel forms sit directly to the left of the yellow and gray forms. A blood-red passage is placed at the bottom edge near the right, and has a white lifeline cutting through its center as it travels horizontally from the bottom right edge over and up towards the work's left center quadrant. A strange mauve-colored passage is placed at the right edge, directly below the black.
