CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION
A print depicts an abstraction with geometric forms and contrasting warm and cold tones. The central composition shows a symmetric arrangement of four orange circles above an orange spade shape. A light triangular shape, traced with a fine purple line and with a circle in its center, sits above the five orange shapes. A bright yellow circle is depicted behind those elements, as a ring of light. The background is a dark blue square covered with small dots resembling Braille, with a slightly lighter blue border. The lighter border contains the small Braille-like dots as well. The entire composition is surrounded by a white border.
