About the Item

Locked in an embrace, two of the three primary colors set against a yellow background might represent the contentment of enduring intimacy, or the grip technology has on all of us, or even urban build out. But better still, whatever you can imagine. Rather like renowned American sculptor Alexander Calder’s paintings, this work uses primary colors and simple shapes to make a statement that exudes power. So perhaps it will find a place in your office? Right behind your chair.
