This minimal, conceptual artwork features a vibrant teal-colored rectangular panel with a single metal rod protruding from the center. The simple composition emphasizes the interplay of the solid color field and the linear metal element, creating a striking visual contrast.

We invite you to ask for it, we will be at the gallery, very happy to explain it to you. ...
