Implement blue was created in 1927 and is a still life artwork. It uses geometric shapes and a muted colour scheme. The artist’s intention for this artwork was to show her primarily domestic surroundings in. Implement blue is considered one of the artist’s most contemporary works as it illustrates the progression of modern living and strict investigation of form through the use of implements such as cups and glasses.
