“Composition 35,” created by Sonia Delaunay circa 1930, is a work representative of the Orphism art movement. Categorized within the design genre, the artwork embodies a visual symphony of color and form characteristic of Delaunay’s distinguished style.
The artwork exhibits a dynamic interplay of colors and abstract forms. It features an assortment of star-like shapes in vibrant hues of green, blue, yellow, red, and white set against a dark background. These shapes are organized into clusters, creating a sense of rhythm and movement. Intersecting arcs and lines in soft shades of pink, orange, and white traverse the composition, adding to the overall sense of harmony and fluidity. The contrast between the vivid colors and the dark backdrop intensifies the visual impact, capturing the essence of Orphism through the use of pure abstraction and vibrant chromatic contrasts.
