Untitled 2 (A Dashing Herd)

This graphite composition turns a gallop into a meditation on velocity, layering looping arcs and frantic hatchwork until the horses seem to multiply through time rather than occupy a single instant. Against the spare white ground, the bodies cohere only where the artist permits brief clarity—heads, flanks, and lifted legs emerging like recollections—while the surrounding spirals read as wake, wind, and momentum made visible. The circular sweeps compress the herd into a vortex, suggesting not mere movement but the inevitability of forward thrust, where power and vulnerability share the same trembling line.
