Nonrepresentational / Nonfigurative

Sign

Expansion

Not meant to depict anything found in nature, instead relying on shape, line, and form with no particular subject. Abstract art can include abstractions of real-life objects such as trees, or it can be non-representational. Non-objective art takes non-representational to another level.
