“Delirious Hem” is an abstract artwork created by Ellen Gallagher in 1995. This piece is associated with the art movement Neo-Minimalism.
The artwork features an intricate arrangement characterized by five distinct, rectangular segments that have been subtly distorted. These segments, delineated with gentle, almost pastel-like linear patterns, occupy a central position within the piece. Surrounding these, a series of abstract, repetitive shapes provide a rhythmic border. The muted color palette and methodical composition reflect the minimalist aesthetic, while the slight undulations and textured details introduce complexity and depth. The overall effect is both orderly and dynamic, inviting viewers to contemplate the harmonious interplay of form and space.
