Work Description:
|
Writhing, vertical black and white forms fill this small composition. Positive and negative space are confused as the white forms push forward in the picture plane while they simultaneously recede behind the black. At the center of the work lies a thicker black form, punctured with dabs of crimson and shots of yellow. A thin cobalt blue form enters at the bottom right.
