Description:

In this painting, the background, executed in silver paint, shimmers and shifts with one's viewing angle. The artist's use of directional strokes creates a sense of constant movement. In the foreground, an amorphous object appears to be in mid-flight. By sanding and effacing certain areas, the artist exposes multiple layers of paint beneath the surface, serving as a counterpoint to the background's silvery sheen.
