Purple Poison

Description of Art: In Purple Poison, Godard juxtaposes lush purples and deep darks to evoke an arresting visual drama. The title suggests both beauty and danger; the composition likely features symbolic elements—perhaps flora or forms that allude to toxicity—rendered with his characteristic playful surrealism. Light is manipulated to punctuate certain areas, drawing the eye in while allowing other zones to recede into shadow. The hand-embellishments add subtle texture and highlight, enhancing the depth and visual intrigue of the canvas.
