Untitled 5 (Vertical Tapestry**)

A slender vertical column of scorched umber and ash-grey rises like a recovered fragment, its surface bruised by time yet insistently alive with white, calligraphic incisions that read as both sutures and sparks. The composition’s tight, totemic stacking compresses space into a single spine, guiding the eye through layered veils of abrasion where charcoal shadows, muted ochres, and raw highlights form a quiet archaeology of gesture. Within this restrained palette, the work stages a dialogue between erosion and inscription—memory as matter, and the human impulse to mark as a form of repair. The surrounding pale ground functions like silence, amplifying the inner turbulence and lending the piece a solemn, meditative authority.
