The image shows a circle with two perpendicular lines dividing it into four quadrants. The design resembles a compass or a pie chart. The circle and lines are drawn in a dark color on an aged, textured square background set against a blank expanse. This composition suggests directional or sectional representations commonly used in diagrams.

The image shows a large rectangular shape filled with a uniform color. The shape resembles a plain sheet of paper or a blank canvas, creating a simple and abstract appearance with minimal visual detail. The even texture and smooth edges suggest a clean, untouched surface.

This is a drawing of a rectangular pattern with vertical and horizontal black lines on a textured background. The artwork features an open book layout with a blank left page and a right page containing a small rectangular section. The section on the right page has a roughly textured area outlined in black with darker vertical and horizontal lines suggesting a grid or architectural layout. Below this area is a small label that reads "New Delhi 1961 - 1963." The design highlights the contrast between the delicate background and bold black outlines, creating an intriguing balance of minimalism and structure.

The image shows a square shape with a thick black border enclosing an abstract composition of textured, lighter areas in the center of a beige background. The square contains lines and brush strokes that suggest the grain of wood or a finely worn fabric, resembling a well-used tabletop. The title "New Delhi 1968 - 1974" is visible below the square.

This painting shows distorted and exaggerated shapes forming abstract humanoid figures against a blue sky with pale clouds. The figures have pale skin, elongated limbs, and exaggerated facial features, including some that seem cartoonish or animalistic. The faces have wide, protruding eyes, round noses, pointed ears, and large white teeth sticking out from their downturned mouths. They are all grouped together near the bottom left corner of the painting, with some figures partially hidden behind others. Two of them are clothed in long dresses, while one appears nude.

Two vertical, rectangular, polished steel panels are hung close to each other on a dove-gray wall, and the wavy reflections show the wood floor and gray wall behind us. In the left panel, the image of a woman is silkscreened onto what appears to be a mirror. The woman has brown skin, and she stands facing away mostly away from us. She points into the distance with her left hand, farther from us, and her other arm hangs by her side. She wears a rounded white cap with a narrow brim over shoulder-length dark hair. The edge of her glasses are visible over her right cheek. Her white dress is cinched at the waist, has short sleeves, and comes to mid-calf. She wears white sandals with low heels. The room reflected around her has dark gray paneling along the bottom of the lighter gray walls.

The image shows a geometric abstract shape with a dark outline against a blank background. The bold, stepped contour in the middle right section of the canvas resembles a reversed "L" or a simplified rendition of a key, or a Tetris block. The overall composition is minimalistic with the stark contrast drawing focus to the abstract form that evokes a map or floor plan, while a small label below reads "New York 1976."

This sculpture is made up of bold, uppercase neon letters forming the word "AMERICA" in two rows, with the letters on the bottom positioned upside down, as if they are a reflection of the top row. Some of the letters on the top row are also backwards. The glowing white neon tubes stand out against the dark gray background. Visible electrical cords hang from the letters down to the gray floor.

This round painting shows two people walking on a patch of grass. The taller person is on the left, holding the other person's arm with one hand and a small bucket with another hand. Both people have pale brown skin, patchy beards, and dark hair. The smaller person is wearing a bright orange beanie, a ragged white shirt, and a small necklace around their neck. Their lower half is bare, exposing their genitals, although they wear white socks and dark shoes. Their socks are covered with patches of red. They hold a brown walking stick or staff and have a pale-yellow bang slung over one shoulder. The taller person wears a dark coat that is open to show their chest and dark pants. Both their coat and pants have patches of a greenish color on them. They wear one white sneaker, and their other foot is bare. The taller person has a white cloth tied around their forehead, and the shorter person appears to wear an orange cap. The background includes a cloudy gray and pale-blue sky over sparse green foliage. The brushstrokes in the painting are thick and visible, giving the people an abstracted appearance.
