Work Description:
|
In this predominately white composition, a dark maroon, scythe-shaped object juts into view from the bottom left corner before curving sharply up towards the work's top center. It is surrounded by rough strokes of black which seem to congregate and stretch around the maroon shape's apex. A small, bright red painted shapes sits in the main figure's elbow, and a bright yellow mass of lines hovers in the top left corner. The composition's bottom right corner is covered in a burnt orange pigment.
