Rita Angus, a pioneering New Zealand artist, created Growth in 1968, exemplifying her exploration within the Abstract art movement. The artwork reflects the principles of Abstract expression through its focus on form and color rather than representational content. Angus’s technique emphasizes bold shapes and dynamic composition, evoking a sense of development and transformation inherent in the title Growth.
