Description
In Space X – overlapping circles and one gold ring
Wall art piles overlapping circles across the whole surface in red, ochre, beige and grey, cutting two dark red ones into the top edge and setting two pale yellow dotted ones below them: painting on canvas whose single closed circle is a ring drawn in thick gold above the middle.
Technique and texture
The gold ring was laid as a raised kneaded line and then burnished, so it casts its own shadow whenever the light comes from the side. The other circles are outlined with thin dark lines pulled in one sweep, doubling where the hand went round again. Beneath them lie translucent layers with tiny marks scratched in, and those show only from close to.
The motif
The circles overlap so densely that almost no bare ground survives between them, and not one of them is whole — each is cut either by a neighbour or by the edge. Inside the gold ring the colour is darker and denser than anywhere outside it, which turns the ring into a window rather than a shape. The composition is a crop, and it plainly carries on past all four edges.
Setting and placement
Because this is a close view, the motif holds up on a smaller wall than most abstractions need. Relief like this shifts through the day, so hang it where light arrives from the side rather than head on; a lamp square in front of it flattens the gold.

In Space X: sizes and delivery
The red, ochre, beige and grey circles are painted in 19 landscape sizes, from 60 x 30 to 340 x 170 cm, each one twice as wide as it is tall. Over a 160 cm bed choose 110 x 55 cm, over a 180 cm bed 120 x 60 cm, above a 200 cm sofa 130 x 65 or 140 x 70 cm, and along a long hallway 100 x 50 cm. Because the motif is a close view, it also holds its own on a smaller wall at 80 x 40 cm.
Choosing YES under Stretcher means the painting with the gold ring arrives on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A frame for the red and ochre circles is optional, and the Frame menu opens at Without frame. Delivery takes 15–45 days. The gold ring is hand-painted as a raised, burnished line that casts its own shadow, so it cannot be a print.
Before you order In Space X
Which size of In Space X fits above a double bed?
For a 160 cm bed 110 x 55 cm, for a 180 cm bed 120 x 60 cm; both keep the 2:1 proportion of the whole ladder.
Is the gold ring on In Space X printed?
No, the ring is laid as a raised kneaded line and then burnished, which is why it throws a shadow in side light.
Does In Space X come with a frame?
No, the frame is optional – the Frame menu starts at Without frame, and the red, ochre and grey circles hang well without one.
Can I order the circles with the gold ring in another size or proportion?
If none of the 19 sizes from 60 x 30 to 340 x 170 cm suits your wall, ask us about a painting made to order with the circles and gold ring.
