Red and white three-dimensional trapeze-shaped canvas. The artist creates each individual canvas shape and stretched the canvas over the uniquely created stretchers. Towards the top of the canvas is a ripple shape where the white is painting on the canvas. The work is signed, titled and dated by the artist on the back of the canvas.
