A delicate, translucent iteration of David Salle’s kaleidescopic layers usually painted in large scale. Eyes etched in a liquid ocean of blue and orange aquatint form the ground for a nude woman sketched in red. She gazes contemplatively towards the lower edge of the composition, head resting on her knee.
