About this work

This image shows six black shapes inside diamond frames. Each shape looks like a twisted letter "U" or "V," but they’re all different. The background is plain white, and the whole thing is framed by a thin black line. The artist signed it "Ward Jackson '97" in the corner. The title is written as "Transverse," though it’s not clear why. If you like this kind of simple, bold art, check out lithography next.
