This composition unfolds as a network of circular forms bound together by winding, cord-like pathways, evoking systems of connection, circulation, and interdependence. Each node, distinguished by its own colour and texture, functions as an individual presence, while the sinuous lines imply movement, communication, and a shared trajectory. No element stands alone; significance arises through relationship rather than singular focus.

Set against a densely layered ochre ground marked by subtle linear inscriptions, the surface recalls maps, circuits, and ancestral diagrams at once. The background reads as a coded field—suggestive of urban grids, memory traces, or unseen infrastructures—over which organic forms assert rhythm, continuity, and life. Dotted contours encircling the forms introduce a tactile, almost stitched quality, reinforcing notions of repair, connection, and deliberate assembly.

Stylistically, the work operates within contemporary symbolic abstraction, informed by indigenous pattern logic and modern expressionist sensibilities. Colour is employed structurally rather than decoratively, guiding the eye along a non-linear passage across the canvas. The result is a visual metaphor for human, social, and cosmic networks, where difference and diversity coexist within an integrated and living whole.
