Untitled 2 (Circular Arbor)

This pen-and-ink meditation conjures a seated figure from a lattice of circles, as if the body were assembled from breath itself—countless luminous atoms held in quiet suspension. Behind it, angular, stepped contours rise like a mandala-temple in mid-construction, framing the calm center with a restless architecture of thought and worldly noise. The stark monochrome and insistently repeated linework turn emptiness into a charged field, suggesting enlightenment not as escape, but as a disciplined ordering of chaos into stillness.
