Two arcing lines in muted forest green describe a form that hovers between the organic and the aerodynamic. Ashby leaves both ends open, refusing to close the shape into certainty, so the eye must complete what the hand withholds. The upper curve carries a slight shoulder before dropping away, giving the composition an unexpected weight. Against the bare white ground, the colour reads as quiet and deliberate rather than decorative.
