Open-edition print
2021, New York· Original: colored pencil on paper.
Signal Overload fractures a face into a compact field of signals: sweeping arcs, folded wedges, and zigzag edges that read like a map of shifting attention. A bright, sunburst eye is pinned near the upper right, while a second eye hides in a small panel below, suggesting the self splitting into different angles at once. Rust red and mustard accents run along the contours like exposed seams, and dense black hatching drops weight into the center, turning the white paper into a kind of shallow relief.
Rather than resolving into a single portrait, the figure stays diagrammatic and unsettled, part mask, part blueprint. Curves that could be jawline or shoulder loop back into hard corners, and striped planes slide past each other like overlapping thoughts, holding tension between motion and containment.
