Rendered in a sustained violet line of remarkable fluency, this work deploys loose, gestural lettering to carry devotional language with neither solemnity nor irony. The strokes swell and taper organically, the ascenders of the upper word pushing beyond the frame as though the declaration exceeds containment. Colour - a mid-purple sitting between liturgical and contemporary - anchors the piece in a register that feels genuinely felt rather than performed.
