About this work

This painting is a collage of torn and pasted paper sheets, featuring a mix of abstract shapes and lines in various colors. The dominant colors are shades of blue, gray, and black, with some hints of orange and green. The shapes are irregular and seem to overlap each other, creating a sense of depth and layering. Upon closer inspection, you can see the texture of the paper and the rough edges where the sheets were torn. The overall effect is one of dynamic energy and movement, as if the shapes are swirling around each other.
