Untitled

A triptych artwork on wooden panels featuring stylized, abstract human figures with prominent, geometric facial features and bodies. The left panel is darker with a figure in shades of brown and black, the middle panel is lighter with a yellowish figure, and the right panel has a figure with a mix of dark and light tones. The figures appear contemplative or meditative, with lines and patterns that suggest a fusion of human form with abstract design elements. The panels are framed in a simple, dark border.
