Époque des forêts (Age of Forests) ,
A life-sized bronze abstract female nude holds her hands placed in front of her chest, as if cradling an invisible sphere. She appears to be perched on a tall chair, which supports and frames the figure from behind. The facial features on her flat, round head are angular. Her long, skinny body terminates in long legs bent at the knee. The figure’s feet rest on a narrow rectangular shaped stool at the sculpture’s base.

L'objet invisible (Mains tenant le vide) [Invisible Object (Hands Holding the Void)] ,
The simplified outlines of a child’s face, seen from forehead to chin, fill most of roughly textured and muted colored surface of this image. Black horizontal lines define bags under the person’s eyes, and an additional horizontal line defines a mouth with tightly closed lips. A diamond pattern extends across the person’s forehead at the work’s upper edge and extends to midway down either side of the face.

La Mer du Temps from Serie Or (The Sea of Time from the Gold Series) ,
This painting features a beige-color room full of fantastical creatures performing music and acrobatics, and floating through the air. These colorful beings are shaped like musical instruments, insects, animals, and mermaids and interact with instruments, musical notes, a ladder, dice, unicycle, a shooting star, and other objects. A window at top right looks out onto a landscape, and beneath it is a table with a fish, a globe, and papers.

Two illustrations for A Primitive like an Orb (poem by Wallace Stevens) ,
Two biomorphic forms sit side by side in the foreground of this abstract, dream-like landscape. The smaller form on the left includes a gray square with red sticks emerging from its left side. Narrow gray stalks support the blue and pink shapes that make up the taller form on the right, which casts a long shadow toward the top left corner of the painting. Nine small circular discs with white sides and blue surfaces appear scattered throughout the scene.
