This painting features a striking composition dominated by bold geometric forms and symbolic elements. A large black arch-like shape anchors the top half, enclosing a textured vertical block of red and black, resembling a doorway or totemic panel. Cutting across the centre is a grey band inscribed with hand-drawn symbols, giving the impression of a cryptic script or coded language. Below this, five textured orbs in various colours—red, blue, green, yellow, and grey—sit within a densely patterned field, resembling seeds or cells, hinting at growth or diversity. The lower portion is constructed with sharp black triangular forms, accented by dynamic red and white lines, adding motion and contrast. The overall palette is limited yet powerful, with red and white highlights energizing the dominant black and grey. The careful detailing in line work, textures, and symbols gives the painting a handcrafted, contemplative quality. The layout feels both structured and enigmatic, like a visual artifact or a ceremonial object. There’s a subtle interplay between order and mystery. Each element appears deliberate, yet open to interpretation. This piece stands out for its narrative suggestion without being literal. It blends abstraction with symbolic storytelling, maintaining the artist's signature style.
