A minimalist yet intricately rendered composition that nods subtly to the Memphis design movement. Executed in meticulous pen and ink, the drawing features a central asymmetrical form layered with fine stippling and texture, juxtaposed against a dense field of concentric circular marks. The balance between organic pattern and geometric precision creates a contemplative, almost meditative rhythm. The surrounding field suggests a cosmic or cellular atmosphere, framing the central shape like a quiet anchor within a dynamic universe. From a private collection; acquired directly from the artist. Dimensions: 20.5 inches tall, 17.5 inches wide, and 1 inch deep (framed). In excellent condition.
