Graphite on paper
5 × 8 in image size
A pair of hands rests in the mudra associated with Zen meditation. Drawn with restrained graphite, the image concentrates attention on gesture, stillness, and the expressive possibilities of a body shown only in part.
The simplicity of the pose is deceptive. The hands belong to a specific person and relationship, but the drawing allows that history to remain largely outside the frame. What remains visible is the gesture itself: composed, self-contained, and quiet.
