Cotton jacquard, with certificate numbered and signed by the artist - This listing is for a single piece of artwork. The images provided depict both the recto and the verso of the same artwork for reference. // This artwork features a textile piece in cotton jacquard, measuring 220 x 140 cm, showcasing a repetitive octopus motif across two panels. One panel has a mustard yellow background with ocean blue octopuses, while the other inverts the colors, presenting ocean blue with mustard yellow octopuses.

What is minimalism?
Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
