“Composition 22” is an artwork created by Sonia Delaunay in approximately 1930. The piece belongs to the Orphism art movement and is classified under the design genre.
The artwork is characterized by its vibrant use of geometrical shapes and bold colors. It features a pattern of repeated zig-zag forms in various hues of red, yellow, pink, and grey, accentuated by black outlines. The arrangement of shapes creates an optical rhythm that is both dynamic and harmonious, embodying the principles of Orphism through the abstraction and vivid interplay of colors. The overall composition reflects Delaunay’s innovative approach to design and her interest in the synchronization of color and form.
