Work Description:
|
A white organic passage is painted down the center of this work, surrounded by a bright yellow pigment mottled with streaks of brown. A crimson form rises from the bottom edge amidst the white field and ends halfway up the composition. A second form, painted in black, floats to the right of the crimson shape and is also surrounded by the white field. Both the top of the red form and the bottom of the black form end in claw-like, gaping maws. A tiny streak of green sits to the right of the black form's uppermost tip.
