The Image

A black silhouette of a crouching figure surrounded by layered rectangular outlines and a striped circle. Tense, geometric, contained.

The outlines do the work of a stage. They close in on the figure without touching her, which is the point. The striped circle sits behind like a tight sun.

Part of a silhouettes set styled after Art Deco posters. Reduction first, decoration second.
