This painting is mostly black and white with bold, jagged shapes. Some areas look like stacked boxes or walls, while others feel rough and torn. The colors are dark—deep blacks, grays, and a few pale spots—with thick, uneven brushstrokes or marks. One odd detail: the pale, almost ghostly patches peek through the dark layers, like light hitting something hidden. The way the shapes overlap gives it a sense of depth, even though it’s abstract.
