At the center, a dense core seems to build around the fine black cross that structures the entire composition. John Beckley organizes around this axis a circulation of intense colors, where pink, turquoise and orange overlap in broad rounded movements and in more geometric bands. The black and white splashes and the repeated curved lines create a vibrant, resonant texture that reinforces the idea of radiance. The light background, punctuated by soft nuances, lets this highly worked central area breathe. One has the sensation of continuous movement, as if the light were spreading out from this colorful heart.
