Description
This elegant wood panel piece uses a dark and earthy palette to explore abstracted form and colour. White circles appear underneath the foregrounded black circular forms, creating a layered and energetic piece that possesses an almost kinetic character bursting with motion and life. Here, Higashi synthesises the contradictions of life, playing with light and dark tones to evoke beauty and strength, chaos and tranquility, movement and stillness.
