This vibrant abstract artwork features bold, contrasting colors and fluid shapes. The composition is dominated by an oval form with a striking red upper half and a vivid blue lower half, separated by an undulating curve.

Jan Kaláb works with diverse visual formats such as painting, sculpture, installation, street murals and more recently, NFTs. He has cultivated a distinct aesthetic style, forming amorphous organic shapes in either sculptural or painted form and producing these abstract entities in bright hues. Kaláb has a background in street art, and this continues to inform his high-octane, visually arresting designs.
