  • Blue rectangular plaster or concrete panel with a textured gray center surrounded by black and white checkered border patterns, mounted horizontally on a neutral wall.
  • Two rectangular blue-gray wall-mounted panels with silver-textured central relief forms featuring intricate dotted and linear surface patterns, positioned symmetrically on a white gallery wall.
  • Abstract wall installation composed of densely tangled dark blue wire forming a gestural head or profile on the left side, transitioning into sweeping horizontal bands of red wire that extend across the white wall like fragmented stripes. Loose red wire elements cascade onto the gray floor below, creating a sense of movement and decay.
