This drawing shows two tall, rectangular shapes made of colored lines on graph paper. Each shape has a yellow base and top, with red and blue lines inside. Below them is a smaller, dashed rectangle. The paper is light beige with faint pencil marks. The artist used simple colors and clean lines to make these forms look like they’re floating. The numbers and letters in the corners might be notes for where the work was meant to go. Look up Dan Flavin next to see how he turned light and color into art.
