This work reduces the world to a quiet archaeology of touch: a field of earthen greys built from horizontal ridges that read like sedimentary strata, each band recording a small accrual of time. The restrained palette and shallow relief allow light to become the true animator, sliding across the surface to reveal minute fissures and softened edges, where order repeatedly yields to the material’s own imperfect grain. In its insistence on repetition, the composition evokes both construction and erosion—an image of labor that is simultaneously undone, proposing permanence as something continually negotiated.
