Work Description:
|
A thin, snaking red lifeline runs from top to bottom amidst a mysterious, deep blue-black field. The left and right edges of the canvas are streaked with lighter blue and white, to emphasize the dark crevice-like quality of the composition's center. Tiny yellow dots are speckled around a particularly curvy section of the red lifeline near the top. Three smaller, brown sinuous lines appear side by side near the lower left edge.
