Work Description:
|
A grouping of jagged, irregularly-shaped forms fill the upper right quadrant of this otherwise bare, horizontally-oriented canvas. The largest forms are black, which surround and divide four smaller colored forms. The largest of the colored forms is red, which sits below a very small green form. These are both located just right of canvas center. A small yellow form is visible at the top edge, just above a larger dagger-shaped orange form. A blue form resides along the left edge of the canvas just above the center line, and another tiny form is located at the bottom edge near the lower right corner. A very thin, white lifeline runs from top edge to bottom and splits the composition just left of center.
