Artist, Czech, 1940 - 2013

The image depicts an abstract composition with various shapes and forms. In the center at the top, human fingers emerge through a rectangular hole. Below the fingers, an outlined square shape is formed with broad, translucent tape-like strokes. Near the bottom, a row of filled black circles is evenly spaced. The elements create a visual connection between organic and manufactured aspects, blurring the line between the human element and abstract geometric design.
