Object Description:
An undulating yellow arc forms the reflection of a letter G. Shapes and lines echo each other throughout the composition, repeating the letter and mirroring elements of its form, such as the ball and pedestal, in both foreground and background. He often deconstructed the lines and patterns in an analytical yet playful fashion, as he has done with the Variations of a Rhythm series from 1931
