Dominant colour
Old Ford Lock is a 2008 by Linda Simmons, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This is just a big, flat gray square. No shapes, no lines, no movement—just a solid color inside a white border. The edges are clean and sharp, like a window frame. The only text is small and faint: *"Old Ford Lock"* and *"Linda Simmons"* in the bottom corners. It’s a screen print, so the gray looks even smoother than paint. If you like simple, bold art, check out Linda Simmons.
A large black square is printed on paper, overlaid with a repeated grey pattern, and the artist has signed the work.
