The artwork, titled “Low Water,” was created by Joan Mitchell in 1969. It belongs to the Abstract Expressionism movement and is categorized within the abstract genre.
“Low Water” is a vibrant composition, characterized by a dynamic interplay of colors and textures. Dominant reds, greens, and yellows are interspersed with softer shades of blue, grey, and white. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, with splatters and drips that emphasize the raw, unrestrained emotion typical of Abstract Expressionism. The arrangement of colors creates a sense of depth and movement within the artwork, inviting viewers to lose themselves in its complex layers.
