DescriptionThe painting is composed of laminate strips and metallic materials fused onto a grey canvas. At the lower left of the abstract painting are strips of blue painted with acrylic. Otherwise the work is of grey and white undulating forms. On the bottom right are several black block strips. The work is spontaneous, improvisational. A shaft like white grey form is at the upper left sliced by two sharply angled diagonal forms.
