Untitled
1958
This abstract composition on paper combines multiple media including gouache, watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite to create a layered, ethereal work. Scattered throughout the composition are geometric forms, linear marks, and gestural strokes in muted tones punctuated by areas of yellow, blue, and orange. The artist has incorporated translucent washes and delicate linear elements that suggest architectural or structural fragments, while photographic or printed materials appear to be embedded within the composition. The overall effect is one of accumulated marks and materials that exist in a state of visual dialogue, characteristic of the artist's interest in combining disparate elements into unified wholes.
