Birds 4

In this monochrome menagerie, a rounded, patterned nucleus becomes a quiet gravity well around which bird-like forms orbit, peering inward as if to consult a shared secret. The artist’s disciplined linework—scales, concentric arcs, and crosshatching—substitutes for color, letting rhythm and texture generate a pulse of movement that feels both playful and faintly ceremonial. Negative space acts as breath between beaks and wings, turning the crowding into choreography and suggesting community not as harmony alone, but as attentive tension. The central figure reads as an egg, a heart, or an idea—an emblem of origin—held in collective watchfulness by the surrounding flock.
