Early Morning

Elie Abrahami

Associated Names

Elie Abrahami

Artist, Iranian, born 1941

The image shows a dense network of fine, crisscrossing lines overlaid across a chaotic pattern of spots and patches. The abstract composition exhibits a field of confetti or a canvas with multicolored pigments, ranging from reds and greens to blues and yellows. The intersecting lines create a subtle grid-like structure on the surface.
