The scene is built like a saturated urban wall, where dark drips, red splashes and fragments of images intertwine. John Beckley brings together the suited silhouette, its face crossed by two bold red lines, with more graphic elements: street number, banknotes, pieces of text. The large triangular folds at the top right give the illusion that the surface is tearing apart, revealing another plane hidden behind this façade. The touches of red run through the whole and create a nervous rhythm, giving this striped face a character that is both frontal and disorienting.
