Mr. Kowalski’s decision to use various dot designs throughout the work is very effective both in creating cohesion and also to move the viewer eye through the entire work, as does repeating yellow at both ends. As with so many abstract works, one is tempted to anthropomorphize it. In my case, I see wide open mouths, especially at the top, which to me adds interest. Abstract or not, it’s a very successful work.
The surface designs are very effective in emphasizing both positive and negative shapes, and helps your eye to keep moving up and down, back and forth, all over the shape.

The colorful patterns take the eyes on a trip around this piece. Really fun piece, well designed, and good use of negative space!
