Description: “Hidden Currents” is an energetic and layered composition where abstract organic forms flow seamlessly across the canvas. Deep navy and emerald hues dominate the background, overlaid with curving shapes in vibrant reds, burnt oranges, and rich yellows. These bold, flame-like elements are outlined with a delicate dotted border in pale lavender and white, adding a dynamic rhythm to the piece.

The contrasting textures and colors evoke a sense of movement, as though observing currents swirling beneath a dark surface. Pockets of light blue and turquoise appear like flashes of light breaking through the abstract depths, creating a captivating interplay of shadows and illumination.

The intricate patterns and confident brushstrokes make this work visually striking and full of energy, ideal for collectors of mid-century abstract art.
