Untitled
1961

This image features an abstract artwork with a vibrant yellow background overlaid with various shapes and patterns in blue, red, and black. On the left side, there are blue organic shapes resembling seaweed or flames. The central area has a chaotic tangle of black lines, possibly representing scribbles or wire-like structures, over a patch of red-orange that fades into the yellow. To the right, there are more abstract forms in a darker red-brown, with leaf-like patterns. The composition is dynamic and colorful, with a sense of layered textures and movement.
