Abstract geometry proposes shapes, lines, angles and a space in which the artist will position the figures, assembling them to obtain a visual effect.

Geometric abstraction and optical art have been present in many cultures throughout history, both as decorative motifs and as art pieces themselves. In this work Childers, faithful to these currents of modern art, proposes a piece in which the means of expression are lines and colors that interdependently create an optical illusion of a labyrinth, with depth effects. The painting does not express any feeling. It proclaims itself independent of an emotional value system.
