Description: Unexpectedly, we see the short vertical line representing the self curve back and forth, suggesting unreliability. Contrasts of colour and space emphasise the expanse of this prototype. The embellished figure indicates the essential difference between pattern and texture.

``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea''
[Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942]
