I felt this work in particular was exploring in a new range of shapes and feeling. In particular, I noticed that the black ellipse with a tail was particularly new and distinct. It was different from all the rectangles, lines, and circles that Malevich had used before. In particular, the use of black brought out the shape’s prominence and meaning. There was a feeling of movement and approach in the chaos of shapes and colors that I wanted to bring out in my own work.
