Shape of Water 21

An abstract composition in graduated tones of indigo and pale blue, divided into three vertical bands: a dense cluster of overlapping circular forms at left, a narrow strip of tight vertical ridged lines at center, and a broad, softly mottled expanse of lighter blue occupying the right two-thirds. Scattered small white and pale dots punctuate the surface, and a red seal mark appears near the artist's pencil signature at the lower right. The overall mood is calm and meditative, evoking water through pure pattern and color rather than pictorial representation. Junichiro Yoshimatsu, *Shape of Water 21*, 2021, silkscreen/woodblock.
