Roundism - 10-08-20 by Corné Akkers breaks a reclining figure into sharply angled planes. The head and arm remain recognizable near one side, while the body and surrounding folds become a connected arrangement of geometric shapes.
Subtle shading models the facets, giving them depth despite their angular boundaries. The limited gray palette focuses attention on the meeting of light and shadow and the way the figure merges with its setting.
