The composition of Oran features rhythmic arrangements of color, space, and shape. The dominant colors used in the painting are red and blue, which add depth and interest to the overall composition. The central figure in the painting appears to be a black object, possibly a guitar or musical instrument, surrounded by smaller figures, including one that resembles a person's head.Artist's Background and Influences
