Piece description from the artist
There Is No Them invites you into a world where boundaries blur and forms flow effortlessly into one another. A series of organic shapes, outlined sharply in black, weave and overlap across the canvas, creating a visual rhythm that feels both deliberate and spontaneous. The muted palette—soft blues, gentle browns, whites, and grays—offers a soothing backdrop that balances movement with calm, allowing each shape to breathe while maintaining a sense of connectedness. The interplay of overlapping forms adds depth and a subtle sense of motion, guiding the eye along an unending path that feels both familiar and fresh. Against a soft, gray-and-white background, these shapes stand out confidently, forging a composition that’s dynamic without overwhelming—inviting reflection on unity, flow, and the spaces in between.
