This work is fairly abstract and somewhat eclectic in terms of its motifs, but it also uses them brilliantly to play into its central theme and lay thick symbolism. The black, negative-space figure reaches out to all corners of the work, and the small lighted figures in the bottom-right corner pay tribute to it. Outside of the black figure's sphere of influence, vertical lines persist, alluding to structure and activity, but inside is simply a smooth gradient of light purple into the deep black.
