// Gypsy Switch / Periscope Up by Robin Winters, created in 1986, is an intricate acrylic painting on canvas that combines abstract forms with symbols reminiscent of tribal or folk art. The composition is densely packed with vibrant shapes outlined in yellow, red, and white, creating a maze-like structure filled with enigmatic figures, spirals, and geometric shapes. Eyes, human-like forms, and organic motifs seem to emerge from the chaotic arrangement, evoking a sense of storytelling or mythology. The layered imagery and textured brushwork give the piece a dynamic, almost pulsating energy, inviting viewers to explore its hidden symbols and complex narratives. Winters’s use of bold color and intricate linework suggests themes of mysticism, cultural memory, and the subconscious.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational.

However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
