A riot of chromatic assertion, this work places a red bloom at the centre of a visual field where competing lines - blue, teal, purple - surge outward across pink and yellow grounds like vectors of pure libidinal energy. Lis constructs something close to what Matisse called 'expression through colour alone', the orange outlines vibrating against their neighbours with an intensity that catalogues sensation rather than representation.
