About the artwork
CSG 000116 (KU) - Into the vibrating surface of the painting, being rhythmically depicted by the harmonious circular movements in expansion, in which each materialistic existence of paints penetrate and vibrate the surface to pass to the other side beyond our perception. This painting keeps an extremely naturalistic approach behind its image, concept and approach while evolves over the expectations of abstract expressionism.
