Syllable in the Cosmos — Fine Art

Syllable in the Cosmos shows a pale ground with scattered dark marks and thin lines that seem to drift across the surface. The marks do not settle into a single shape. They look like signs or small signals spread over a quiet field. Richard Pousette-Dart made this kind of abstract painting with layered strokes and small drawn signs.

The fine art print sits in a white frame that gives the picture a clear edge on the wall. The white frame keeps the light marks readable and stops the image from fading into the paint behind it.

It works on the wall above a desk near a window where daylight falls on the surface. From there you notice the small marks first, then the pale field around them.
