This series leans into contemporary black and white work—tonal fields, printlike line, and spare Victorian echoes—where value, negative space, and rhythm do the speaking.
Limiting the palette sharpens judgment: contrasts feel architectural, edges read like etchings, and light is described by measured steps between near-black and near-white.
Hints of Victorian ornamental logic appear in structure rather than flourish, folded into a present-day clarity that keeps the compositions crisp and unsentimental.
