Abstract
Description
This artwork shows how Bettie Cilliers-Barnard incorporates familiar and
timeless signs and universal symbolic forms in variations of the simplified shield
form, usually presented frontally and strictly symmetrically. Here a beetle-like
human figure is juxtaposed onto a rectangular shield with rounded corners.
