"Chess Beats" is a mixed media artwork on wood that reimagines the classic chess game through a fresh, captivating lens. At the center of the piece, a young chimpanzee is depicted facing its first challenge in chess, capturing the essence of a curious and developing mind. The surrounding environment consists of an intricate geometric space that deconstructs before the viewer’s eyes, drawing them into a dynamic spiral that symbolizes the chimp’s mental journey as it attempts to master the chessboard. This piece reflects not only the innocence and exploration of the chimp, but also the tension between simplicity and complexity, learning and discovery. Signed back Mix media/ wood
