Work Description:
|
A small black form grows vertically into the scene at the bottom left corner. Larger, maroon, fragmented forms float in the right half of the composition, which is mostly left unpainted. A thin white lifeline emerges from the top center and shoots down into the bare canvas area below, ending near the top left corner of the maroon forms. A tiny dash of orange is placed directly to the left of this white lifeline.
