Os mochos 1972

"Os mochos" is a black and white abstract artwork by Jose Escada, created in 1972. It features a complex, almost hypnotic pattern of interlocking shapes, reminiscent of both organic forms and abstract, geometric designs. The use of negative space and stark contrast between black and white creates a sense of depth and movement, inviting the viewer to lose themselves in the intricate details of the composition. The artwork is a prime example of Escada's exploration of abstract forms and his ability to capture the complexities of the human form through simplified shapes.
