I combine the idea of positive-negative space and letting the artwork grows on it own with the same repetition as 'THE KNUCKLE CONSTRUCT' folding onto itself again and again but with each fold, the detail gradually change. This time I also control the flow of the artwork itself of where it will grows next to shape the form and create more meaning to the work itself.

 

As the figure goes on, the eerie details start to surface. The abject feeling of the artwork that attract the glance at first and then push it away with grotesque elements. There's the sense of violent and sexuality in each fold. And this is the first time I added liquid element to the artwork with white pastel which somehow connecting the space between negative and positive.
