Abrasion

The surface carries both printed and drawn marks, layered until they begin to contradict each other. Comb-like repeated marks, fluid curves, and solid printed forms coexist without hierarchy, creating a field that reads as a record of sustained, interrupted making. The white ground shows through at the edges, emphasising how much has accumulated at the centre.

A combination of printed and drawn marks on Fabriano paper suggests a monotype base with additional ink drawing worked directly into the surface. The drawn marks, including fine hatching and fluid line, sit visibly on top of the printed ground, registering the work's layered history.

The artwork is framed in a slim contemporary black aluminium frame using Art Glass.
