Scraped Substrata
Jagged vertical fractures split the cardstock, spilling oxidized copper-green pigment that bleeds toward nothingness like ink in water. Each rhythmic jolt of the scalpel strips away layers of a coherent past to reveal only matte charcoal depths beneath. These deliberate abrasions do not uncover an inherent core, but rather carve a shape out of the void through constant friction. In this slow destruction, a quiet stability emerges from the very act of being worn away.
