Clark draws the heart as gesture rather than symbol - a single continuous red line that begins with confidence, dips into an asymmetric cleft, and trails to an open, unresolved base. The slight wobble in the left lobe and the refusal to close the bottom point resist sentimentality entirely. What remains is the record of a hand moving, committed and imperfect, treating an overworked form as raw material for something quieter.
