Description

This striking abstract still life composition features three distinct horizontal bands against a rich red background. The upper portion displays a solid, textured block of dark black powder with defined edges. Across the middle rests a horizontal cluster of crushed metallic silver pigment chunks showing rough, reflective facets and irregular shapes. The lower section features a smooth, glossy red surface with visible brush or paint texture across its lower half. The vertical arrangement creates a strong geometric balance through contrasting textures of matte powder, crystalline metallic fragments, and smooth red pigment.
