If is defined by its vertical rhythm and fluid gesture. Broad and narrow bands of muted gray, off-white, black, and pale gold descend across the surface, their edges softened by the movement of thinned paint.
A single, thin horizontal red line cuts through the center, introducing a moment of quiet tension amid the flowing vertical forms.
Though abstract, the work suggests a sense of gravity and suspension—the paint seems to move as it settles, creating organic transitions between layers. The contrast between the fluid verticals and the deliberate red line gives If its balance between control and release, structure and motion.
