The forms, lines, colors, tones, and textures of this language are utilized in a variety of ways to create perceptions of volume, space, movement, and light on a flat surface.

These parts are integrated into expressive patterns to depict actual or supernatural events, interpret a narrative topic, or create completely abstract visual associations.
