01 / A drawing, put to use
A small gesture.
An everyday place.
Reading is a negotiation between movement and stillness. Open Interval holds one small area of a page while leaving its surrounding space open. The bent line looks provisional, almost hastily drawn, but its weight turns that gesture into a pause. A fragment that asks for attention without demanding to be read.
