Work Description:
|
Two black forms ascend vertically from the bottom of the canvas into a predominantly white scene. The form on the left side of the work is thinner and has a yellow vertical lifeline shooting through its center. The base of this black form rests upon a smaller crimson form at the bottom left corner. The second black form fills the right half of the composition. Thicker streaks of yellow are woven throughout its center. Flat areas of navy blue paint highlight both black forms.
