The texture and scraping away of paint to reveal hints of color beneath make this painting more than a black and white depiction. A wall is never black and white even if the initial impression is so. The painting was completed as a reaction to the war in Ukraine, as well as socio-political forces, including those in the art world, related to walls and allowing entry or denying access.
