About this work

This print shows a black background with scattered white and gray shapes. The shapes look like floating cubes or blocks, some overlapping. Tiny dots and smudges fill the dark space around them. The artist used simple shapes and a stark contrast between light and dark. The result feels geometric and a little mysterious. Next, check out Watkins, Richard for more of his abstract work.
