Petrified Intent
Grit falls away under a fine brush to reveal an etched slab resting beneath the workbench, where a fossilized leaf remains trapped in shale. These jagged grooves mimic deliberate handwriting, yet they feel more like the accidental architecture of erosion sculpted by wind and water. Like amber light caught in swirling dust, the stone’s pattern suggests that what we call intent may only be the way shadows settle into an uneven edge.
