THE ARTWORK
A light form with an undulating contour occupies the centre of a light blue field in this aquatint by Lucio Fontana. Small marks and density variations accompany the transition between inside and outside.
The composition gathers attention around the luminous void, letting colour define its boundary. The circular motif remains irregular and sensitive to surface differences. The eye can follow the edge or pause at the print’s finer passages.
