Sienna, navy, black and white (1976) explores the grid as a space
of infinite possibility. In the never-ending maze-like lattice, Webb
explores the implication of the vertical and the right angle on
the composition. In this significant early work, she begins to
deconstruct the grid – dismantling, cutting, splicing and layering
to create an endless set of configurations. Webb is already exploring
the formal elements and processes that she will remain dedicated
to throughout her career over the next fifty years.
