  • This painting is a large, black square bordered by a thin black frame. Upon closer inspection, it seems as if what appeared to be a solid square is actually divided into thirds horizontally. The middle third appears to be an almost imperceptibly lighter shade than the top and bottom third.

  • Orange-red and battleship-gray geometric forms are arranged in a loose grid in this vertical, abstract painting. Made entirely of vertical and horizontal lines, the forms are reminiscent of letters or hieroglyphs. Sometimes the red forms seem to float in front of a gray background, but then the contrast will flip so the gray comes forward, creating a subtle optical illusion.
