Physical description
The picture plane is framed by a painted borader containing four equally spaced vertical lines that from a basic grid. Behind and across these yellow verticals paint has been applied in a series of gestural graffiti-like marks. Various pieces of text have been scrawled across the surface or diguised further painting.
