An oil painting from 1963, part of a series exploring the theme of the relationship between art and reality, space, and mutual relations between forms. The composition presents diverse circles and semicircles arranged vertically, with color serving as the main tool for constructing mutual relations between figures. The work exemplifies Berdyszak's innovative approach to the integral format, where the painting is not limited to the canvas but enters into a dialogue with its surroundings, exploring the concept of openness and infinity of the work.
