About this work

This painting looks like a tangled, chaotic scene. Big red shapes with white dots sit on top of a messy mix of lines and colors. Dark figures with sharp edges seem to be struggling under the weight of these heavy red forms. The background is a swirl of scribbles and scribbled faces, all in rough, uneven strokes. The artist used lots of overlapping lines and scribbles to create texture. The red shapes feel heavy and almost crushing, while the rest of the image looks like it’s falling apart. If you like this wild, messy style, check out more work by Kim Jones.
