T. Berdowska is guided by geometry. On the one hand, a barely perceptible, regular division of the canvas surface is to be seen with the help of a dense structure of tiny squares or triangles, on the other hand, hardly visible forms such as squares, ellipses or spirals are depicted in their pictorial compositions. They are not built with drawing but with light and color.
In this way the artist achieves effects of depth and vaulting, of pulsation or whirling like in the op art. The painting is mostly monochrome, with her preferred color being blue.
