Perfectly crisp golden bands cross the surface and cut the blue into large triangles and trapezoids, like an abstract plan intersecting and overlapping. John Beckley organizes these lines in diagonals and verticals, creating a very clear structure that gives the eye axes to follow. Behind, the blue is not uniform: it shifts from a deep tone to lighter nuances, with liquid passages that contrast with the geometric rigor. Up close, the gold reveals reflections and subtle variations, which gives the whole a luminous vibration. The work lies in this dialogue between the precision of the line and the moving softness of the blue flat areas.
