About this work

This painting shows a grid of black and white squares. The squares form a tight pattern with a vertical line of thinner white rectangles in the middle. The edges are clean, and the whole thing sits on a plain light background. The artist used simple shapes and colors to create a sense of depth without any real objects. The lines and blocks make your eyes want to follow them, almost like a maze. If you like this kind of art, check out The Museum of Modern Art to see more works like it.
