Study no. 89

At the core of Study no. 89 lies a disciplined exploration of form—its rhythm, density, and presence. The shell, rendered in layered blues and whites, becomes a study in spatial intelligence: its spiral architecture not merely observed but understood. Each striation traces the logic of growth, capturing the tension between organic irregularity and geometric order.

The use of acrylic ink enhances the crisp articulation of contour, allowing the form to oscillate between weight and delicacy. Set against a neutral grey ground, the shell’s volume is neither anchored nor framed, intensifying its sculptural autonomy. This isolation compels the viewer to engage with form as subject—form as memory, form as process, form as a quiet geometry of time.
