Invocation
1952

An abstract expressionist painting with a complex overlay of dark and muted tones, predominantly in shades of green and black, with hints of yellow and orange peeking through. The composition is dense with intersecting lines and shapes that suggest a chaotic lattice or network. The artist's signature is visible in the lower left corner.
