Work Description:
|
A floating black presence dominates the center of this small, vertical composition. Two red eye-like dots, one on top of the other, sit at the top center of this black form.The black form is surrounded by a creamy white field that rises from the bottom left corner of the scene into a darker brown background. A second presence enters the composition at the bottom left corner and rises about a third of the way up the composition.
