Museum-quality archival paper

Designed in our Napa studio

Dramatic black abstract wall art with white line work covering the entire composition — no negative space, no breathing room, just interlocking angular and curved forms packed edge to edge. Straight-edged sections butt up against sweeping arcs, each filled with dense parallel striations that follow the contour of the shape. The overall effect is intense and all-over, closer to a technical drawing than anything decorative. A statement piece for a modern living room, library, or entryway that can handle something with real visual force.

Field Notes

Part of The Friction Series — work drawn from the weathered surfaces of Northern California's industrial landscape. This piece pushes furthest from the series' single-form compositions — instead of one object being worn down, this reads like an entire structure under stress, every surface recording its own directional load. The mix of angular and curved line work suggests both rigid infrastructure and the forces bending it: straight sections holding, curved sections giving. It's the series at maximum density and the piece most likely to dominate a room. Best suited for a large wall in a modern or industrial interior where moody black abstract art is the intention, not an afterthought. Pairs with any other Friction work for a high-contrast gallery wall, though it's strong enough to hang alone.
