In abstract art, the artist uses a visual language of shapes, forms, lines and colors to interpret a subject-matter, without necessarily providing the viewer with a recognisable visual reference point.
This contrasts dramatically with more traditional forms of art which set out to achieve a literal and more representational interpretation of a subject and communicate a ‘reality’ to the viewer.
