The artwork titled “Red Pepper (Triptych)” by Beatriz Milhazes, created in 2009, is a screenprint that falls under the Pattern and Decoration (P&D) art movement and belongs to the abstract genre.
The artwork consists of three separate panels, each presenting a colorful and vibrant composition. The left panel features overlapping geometric shapes and curves, with a dominant palette of greens, reds, and blues, evoking a sense of organic interplay. The central panel showcases a vertical arrangement of circles, wavy lines, and vibrant geometric forms against a backdrop of contrasting colors, creating a rhythm of symmetry and balance. The right panel is marked by an intricate pattern of stripes and concentric circles, with hues of blue, red, and orange, which jointly evoke a sense of dynamic movement and depth. Collectively, the triptych harmonizes the use of bold colors and abstract forms to engage the viewer in a visual experience that is rich in texture and complexity.
