Untitled 4 (Untitled 13)

This pen-and-ink drawing conjures a solitary, stylized figure whose body unfurls into spiraling curls, as if identity itself were being braided from breath, memory, and ornament. The obsessive linework—tight hatching and concentric coils—builds a tactile density that contrasts with the open white ground, making the surrounding star-like motifs feel less like decoration than a field of witnesses or constellations around an inward gaze. With its single, intent eye nested in the vortex of pattern, the work reads as a meditation on introspection: a mind turning over itself, seeking order through repetition while remaining porous to the vastness beyond. The composition’s circular flow closes into a near-embrace, suggesting both protection and confinement—an elegant tension between sanctuary and self-made labyrinth.
