This abstract artwork features a striking combination of colors and shapes. The dominant visual elements are the bold, sweeping gray lines that create a sense of movement and energy across the canvas. Interspersed within these lines are clusters of vibrant red text, which appear to be overlapping or interweaving with the gray forms. The overall composition has a dynamic, almost kinetic quality, suggesting a dialogue between the graphic, textual elements and the more gestural, painterly strokes.
The subject matter appears to be a layering of language and visual abstraction, hinting at themes of communication, expression, and the interplay between text and image. The artist's technique combines elements of calligraphy, typography, and abstract expressionism, creating a visually striking and conceptually engaging work.

Her live performances are audience-driven, creating situations of encounters, awkward and real. Having been born during the 'Dirty War' in Argentina, Pica’s works further consider the issue of state control, history, representation and systems of bureaucracy. In her performances, she explores the ways civic participation can become a mode of resistance to political oppression across time and cultures. ...
