Physical description
This beautiful work is made up of a series of angular and curved shapes and lines in gold, dark and light blue, black and pink, suggestive of a figure standing on an orb, the earth, with upper body and outstretched arms contained within another series of circles, or planetary stars. The artist explores formal and rhythmic relationships through geometric abstraction, differing surface textures and colour.
