A broken trajectory crosses the three panels and links them in a single tense movement, like a line of energy changing rhythm as it advances. On this thread, John Beckley overlays triangles and angular bands, cut from flat areas of color, which black and white splashes disrupt. The pastel background, highly nuanced, softens this nervous structure and gives the whole a luminous rather than harsh presence. Moving from one panel to the next, the eye follows the shifts of the central diagonal and gradually discovers a continuous circulation between diffuse softness and very graphic accents.
