A framed artwork featuring two identical abstract images side by side. Each image consists of a black circular shape against a vibrant blue sky with scattered white clouds. A red vertical line extends from the bottom of each circle, suggesting a surreal interpretation of a hat with a red ribbon. The piece is signed in the lower right corner.
An early photograph framed on a white background, featuring a faded silhouette of a person with indistinct features against a dark backdrop. The image has a blue tint and shows signs of aging with spots and discoloration.
A vibrant abstract artwork featuring a complex pattern of intertwining blue ribbons on a red background, creating an optical illusion of depth and movement.
An artwork depicting multiple overlapping silhouettes of human figures in various poses with a muted color palette. The shadows create a layered effect, suggesting movement and interaction. In the foreground, there are detailed illustrations of plants, adding a natural element to the composition. The piece is signed by the artist and numbered, indicating it is part of a limited series.
A stylized print of a figure with golden hair and dark skin against a black background. The figure is depicted in a minimalistic style with white outlines highlighting the contours of the body and facial features.
A vibrant artwork featuring a red inverted triangle with a face, set against a blue and white background that creates a tunnel-like effect. The triangle has two white eyes with black outlines and a simple black line for a mouth, giving it a surprised or perplexed expression. The piece is numbered and signed in the bottom corners.

A complex and abstract line drawing featuring a whirl of intricate lines, geometric shapes, and scribbles in black and white, with sparse use of color—yellow, orange, and a prominent blue arc.
