About this work

This painting is made of bold, flat blocks of color. Bright reds, purples, and yellows form shapes that don’t look real. A window with panes sits in the middle, but it’s tilted and broken into pieces. The edges are rough, like paper cutouts. Some shapes overlap, others float apart. The artist used woodcut, a printmaking method. Ink is pressed into carved wood, then stamped onto paper. The rough lines and strong colors stand out. Look up woodcut next to see how it works.
