Untitled 1998

Editor: This is an untitled piece by Peter Soriano. It's a small painting, mostly orange and green. I find the shapes quite intriguing. What do you see in this work? Curator: I see a conversation about form and identity. The interplay of these shapes, particularly the dominant green form, feels like a commentary on the presentation of self versus the hidden complexities within. What identities or power structures might these forms represent? Editor: That's interesting. I hadn’t considered a social interpretation. Curator: Consider the historical context of abstract art—its frequent use to challenge established norms. Soriano might be inviting us to question what's overtly visible and what’s subtly obscured. Editor: I see your point. It definitely gives me something to think about. Thanks!
