Red Roller
1982

A vibrant abstract artwork featuring a prominent red rectangular shape in the center, set against a dark background with varying shades of green at the top. Below the red shape, there are three cylindrical forms that appear to be floating or casting shadows on the dark surface. The piece has a textured appearance with visible brush strokes and speckles. Handwritten text and numbers can be seen at the bottom edges of the image, suggesting a signature or edition notation.
