The yellow line here behaves less like an outline and more like an argument about structure, folding back through itself in a way Anni Albers would have recognised as a claim about how form can carry sensation rather than simply describe it. Firth builds up overlapping, translucent layers that gain optical weight without ever hardening into solid shape - repetition and deviation, on this page, turn out to be the same gesture.
