The artwork, titled “Enclosed Resurgence,” was created by Julie Mehretu in 2001 and falls within the abstract genre. The piece visually captures an energetic and intricate assembly of shapes, lines, and forms.
In “Enclosed Resurgence,” dynamic brushwork and layered motifs come together to form a dense, almost chaotic composition. The artwork features a blend of swirling lines and geometric shapes that converge towards the center, creating a sense of movement and depth. Dark black strokes interact with lighter shades and various colors, including subtle hints of red, blue, and green, which add vibrancy to the piece. The overall impression is one of tumultuous energy contained within a structured framework, emblematic of Mehretu’s ability to intertwine complexity and order within her abstract style.
