Description

An abstract diptych of dense, fine parallel lines in pale blue on a cream ground, incised in curving arcs that fan outward from two off-center points to suggest overlapping ripples or wave fronts. The two panels mirror each other, each dominated by a rounded, lighter void where the concentric lines part, giving the surface a rhythmic, pulsing quality. No figures or setting are depicted; the palette is limited to soft blue and off-white throughout.

*Rhythm III*, Kate MacDonagh, mokuhanga (Japanese water-based woodcut), year unknown.
