The design concept of this early work consists of geometric forms. Dealing with forms and colors in different ways opens up new possibilities to use them in a dynamic way. Not chaos but clearly structured forms dominate the surface. Color blocks structure the picture. Grey rectangular figures, sometimes disconnected, give the picture width and height. Red elements against a white background create additional dynamic, while a blue-purple field takes up the different shades of color. The surface is deliberately configurated in two dimensions and does not pretend a third dimension.
