Enfoldings and Flights Unfinished

Enfoldings and Flights Unfinished is a large-scale ink drawing composed of thousands of meticulously placed individual dots. This intricate work embodies the concept of time and the slow, deliberate accumulation of countless connections that coalesce to form larger, more complex structures. Each dot represents a moment, a singular act that, when combined with others, contributes to a larger composition that is constantly in a state of becoming.

The piece reflects on the notion that growth and development—whether biological, creative, or conceptual—are built from small, often unnoticed efforts that gradually accumulate. The drawing remains unfinished, emphasizing that processes of becoming are continuous, with no definite end..

The work forms part of The Absence of Alice.
