Quilt or Decorative Throw by Caroline Brooks Gould




I found this piece on the MoMa website. I really like the variation of color between the different hexagons. The black and red one towards the center creates a focal point, and from there the image collapse inwards onto itself. The light colors on the outside of the picture, to me, convey space.

  1. I like this piece too. It is amazing how the artist made hexagon using flowers.

  2. i agree. the way the artist created such an involved pattern out of just carefully placed flowers is cool. i at first did not see the lighter colored flowers in between the darker colored ones because they just blended in to the background.

  3. To be honest i cant say if i like it or not, but whaqt i do find very cool is the way it pulss your eyes in and then the painting almost starts to radiat, and move.
