The image within the picture plane is hidden within the swirling and movement of the lines created by the folding drapery.
If one looks at this as an action painting or geometric abstraction the figure is revealed by the lines that conjoin and wrap
around the figure. The image also is reminiscing of Greco Roman sculpture where the figure is draped and deeply carved
to reveal a body under cloth. The attention is to combine techniques of modern expressivist paintings with ancient 3 dimensional
carving and for the viewer to find both within the painting.
