Ashok Bhowmick - Artwork 302

A black-and-white composition built from dense, rhythmic cross‑hatching that defines a central, cloak‑like form and a host of small bird motifs. The meticulous, repetitive mark‑making creates deep tonal gradations and a vibrating surface texture. Although abstract in its overall treatment, the work holds figural suggestions — birds and a cloaked silhouette — that emerge through pattern and contrast.

The fine draughtsmanship and dense texture give the piece a meditative, almost incantatory presence.
