dna: sketch: 10

2015

This abstract composition presents a dense grid of rectangular forms arranged in a systematic pattern. Each rectangular unit contains densely layered horizontal lines rendered in black, white, and gray tones, creating a subtle sense of movement and texture across the surface. The work employs a restrained palette and repetitive structure that suggests both order and organic variation. Through the accumulation of gestural mark making, the artist builds a rhythmic composition that invites close observation of the interplay between uniformity and individual expression.

oil, paintstick and paper collage on panel
