About this work

This print shows two circles on a dark background. Each circle has bold stripes—blue, orange, and green—and a white shape inside that looks like a person diving or falling. One circle has a red dot near the top, the other near the bottom. The letters around the circles spell out words: the top reads "I P C" and the bottom "S A S O." The artist used simple shapes and bright colors to make the image feel balanced but a little off-kilter. Next, check out lithography to see how prints like this are made.
