Work Description:
|
A huge glossy brown field dominates this composition. A black form creeps into the brown scene from the bottom edge, rising higher on the left half. A small blue passage is seen at the bottom left corner, and a small reddish-brown form rises into the black along the right bottom edge. A tiny yellow shape splits the reddish-brown form. A larger reddish-brown shape enters the brown field from the top edge, falling towards the black form at bottom.
