The rhythm for the piece is hard to explain but it is crazy and sporadic. it is all over the place.The balance is very equal except for i think it would be to heavy in the bottom right hand corner there is just too much there and not enough in the opposite corner.
The painting sows rhythm because the lines up top look like they are waves so they could be figuratively moving and it balance because all the lines such as the arrows or the spiral in the left bottom corner
The wavy lines at the top of the painting shows that the Kangaroo is moving slowly. Also for the rythm, it is how all the small white lines like pop out at you when you look at it.
