An Op art screenprint of a light pink background with two vertically positioned parallel yellow rectangles dividing the composition in half. Thin light-pink rectangular outlines overlay the solid yellow rectangles. They form radiating concentric rectangles that split the composition symmetrically on a vertical axis. Subtle shifts from top to bottom in the rectangles' color from light pink to white give the illusion of a shift in space on the neutral background. Low-contrast colors highlight the subtlety of the illusion.
