Original artwork description:

Full title: Go Figure; Birds + Words; The Corner
Juxtaposition between the animal and human as well the presence of language and its relationship to apprehending meaning from it. The stark black and white bird, the striped background, the reclining red headed blue nude and words "the corner" share the colorful space while being independent and autonomous and thwarting a figure ground relationship in favor of a fragmented collage-like picture plane The combination of these elements suspends an open ended scenario of suggestions and sensations rather landing on a concrete conclusion or meaning.

Materials used:

Oil paint on canvas
