Okafor-Marsh's cursive sprawl folds writing and abstraction into the same gesture, arcs interlocking without ever settling into legible letters - closer to Masson's sand paintings than to handwriting proper. A darker knot at the centre anchors what would otherwise float loose, a pivot the grey strokes organise themselves around without ever quite reaching language.
