- Echo of Velocity
Original artwork description
This charcoal drawing reduces racing to its most fleeting essence. The car appears almost ghostlike, stretched and softened by speed, as if it’s dissolving into the track itself. The vast white space above amplifies the sense of isolation and velocity, while horizontal charcoal strokes suggest wind, friction, and time slipping past.
Rather than capturing a single moment, the work captures an afterimage — the residue of motion left behind once the car has already passed. The contrast between sharp mechanical hints and blurred surroundings creates tension between control and surrender. It’s a quiet, powerful meditation on speed, impermanence, and the beauty of things that can never be held still.
