Work Description:
|
An irregularly-shaped blue form is positioned just left of center and is surrounded on all sides by bare canvas. An arm from the blue form reaches straight up to the top edge, while another arm reaches down to the bottom edge. A black form hovers along the bottom right edge, pierced at its right side by a fuschia bolt. A tiny orange form sits at the left edge above center, and a thin yellow life-line runs to the right of the orange form up to the top edge.
