About this work

This painting is all straight lines and sharp angles. Black, yellow, and white rectangles and triangles repeat in a grid. The colors are bright—no shadows or soft edges. The shapes tilt and overlap, making a busy, geometric pattern. The artist used a printing method to make many copies of this design. The clean lines and bold colors make it feel modern and almost like a puzzle. Next, check out Jesús Rafael Soto, the artist behind this work.
