In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Mira Schendel developed a production that explore the materiality of the line and gesture as a form of expression. Some works from this period show her interest in the use of tempera and varnish on small-format cardboard, techniques that allowed her to create these compositions with a formal economy, where the artist paints geometric figures across the surface. This experimental nature reveals an intuitive and gestural aspect of the artist's production, in which visual construction takes place through detached strokes and chromatic combinations of earthy tones which, in contrast to each other, expand the dialogues between gesture and surface, form and color.

Mira Schendel desenvolveu no final dos anos 1950 e no início dos anos 1960 uma produção que explora a materialidade do traço e a gestualidade como forma de expressão. Algumas obras desse período apresentam seu interesse pelo uso da têmpera e do verniz sobre cartão em pequeno formato, técnicas que lhe permitiam criar essas composições com uma economia formal, onde a artista pinta figuras geométricas pela superfície. Esse caráter experimental revela um aspecto intuitivo e gestual da produção da artista, em que a construção visual se dá por meio de traços desprendidos e combinações cromáticas de tonalidades terrosas que, em contrastes umas com as outras, expandem os diálogos entre gesto e superfície, forma e cor.
