No Entry presents a measured tension between structure and rupture, where deliberate composition meets unexpected disruption. Four horizontal bands, uneven and textured, form a foundation that feels simultaneously restrained and unsettled. Against this ordered backdrop, slender twigs weave through and beyond the bands, their irregular paths fracturing the otherwise linear arrangement and inviting the eye to explore shifting layers. Near the bottom, a patch of rusted fence wire grounds the piece with its industrial weight, offering a stark contrast to the fragile, organic elements. This interplay of natural growth and manufactured constraint suggests a quiet negotiation between containment and escape, inviting contemplation of the spaces that hold us and those we push to transcend.
