Symbolism - Abstract and Random Shapes

By , About.com Guide

Abstract and Random Shapes:

These are not the regular zig-zag, patterned form of abstraction, but free-form and orderless shapes, which may be closed or open. A wandering line indicates aimlessness and distraction. Rythmical arabesques might suggest a wilful, coqettish distraction, while more purposeful lines indicate unease.
