“Rhythm Colour,” created by Sonia Delaunay, belongs to the Orphism art movement and is characterized by its abstract genre. The artwork showcases a dynamic interplay of shapes and hues, typical of the Orphism style, which emphasizes the harmony and rhythm of colors.
In the artwork, vibrant geometric forms and bold colors such as red, blue, white, and yellow interact in a lively composition. The canvas is divided into sections that feature overlapping circles and shapes, creating a sense of movement and fluidity. The juxtaposition of the dark and light tones, along with the contrast between the curved and straight lines, embodies the rhythmic flow that Delaunay aimed to capture. The overall effect is a visually stimulating piece that celebrates the expressive potential of color and form.
