Technique: the geometric base uses rectangles and two sizes of fabric squares assembled in a 3-D pattern then quilted onto canvas with a silk core
Description: further to Time and Space 6, a palette of orange and yellow starts out from an off-centre point within the composition.
Close to the curve, the rectangle bursts into six squares for the design to spread out
Layered squares – cut from graffiti silk from the 1950s printed in Lyon – are twice as small, in two versions of this print that emphasises the down- and upstrokes
The quilting holds the layers together, following the spokes of the circles, one of which has its centre point outside the frame
