Work Description:
|
This composition is filled with forms that fit together like jigsaw puzzle pieces. A large, smoky blue form fills the left half of the work, running alongside a larger black form which fills the right half. Smaller black forms enter the composition from the bottom left corner and top left edge, an orange form fills the top right corner, and a sliver of yellow runs along the top left edge.
