Much Ado about Nothing

A tangled chorus of swirling lines,
Of whispered words and empty signs.
The louder the forms, the less they say—
A restless dance that fades away.

This gouache on paper painting falls within the Abstract Expressionist genre, marked by spontaneous, gestural brushwork and dynamic linework. The use of bold, fluid red strokes against a stark background evokes emotional energy and a sense of chaotic dialogue. The technique highlights immediacy and movement, mirroring the play’s theme of fuss over trivial matters through visual abstraction.
