I imagine he was giggling while working on those canvases, wondering how far he could push things and still have his output called 'art'...... Nothing shows special skill or care in the images above...
His early work looked far more normal. He didn’t descend into the Neo-Cubist relativism until his worldview descended into something akin to relativism or nihilism. Funny how culture and art are downstream of philosophy.
