Hand-signed, numbered // Tomma Abts' 'O.T., small circles' is a 2015 etching that showcases the artist’s signature geometric abstraction. The composition features a dynamic interplay between linear patterns and vibrant, textured orange circles. The background is composed of diagonal and zigzagging lines in soft gradients of green and grey, creating a sense of depth and perspective. The bright orange circles, evenly spaced across the upper part of the composition, add a contrasting element of color and form, breaking the linearity with their organic presence. Abts’ precise use of geometry and layering creates a rhythm and balance within the artwork, inviting the viewer to engage with the interaction of shapes, color, and structure. The minimalistic approach emphasizes texture and form, characteristic of Abts' thoughtful exploration of abstract space.
