DETAIL SHOWING QUOTE
This abstract artwork crackles with energy — a lively tangle of colour, shape, and intention. Shades of red, pink, and muted grey dominate the canvas, mingling geometric precision with the fluid looseness of organic forms.
Threading it all together are delicate black lines that loop and swirl across the surface, creating sweeping arcs that give the piece both movement and pulse. Scattered throughout are tiny squares in white and pale blue — small but striking bursts of colour that ground the rhythm with a sense of quiet order.
Tucked within the composition, almost hidden in plain sight, is a handwritten phrase: “Busy is a decision.” It sits comfortably within the design — not shouting, but clearly part of the conversation — offering a pause for thought amid the visual momentum.
The result is dynamic yet considered, bold but balanced — a textured, conceptual piece that challenges the chaos while dancing through it
