The second long-format genomic on the gallery’s opening wall,
Agatha Christie spans 24" x 96"—a horizontal field of visual tension and coded recursion. The canvas moves through cellular abstraction, chromatic gradients, checkerboard logic, sports iconography, and symbolic notation. Each band feels like a clue, but none resolve.
Between the football players and the central portrait, overlapped schematics of firearms interrupt the rhythm—technical, latent, and quietly volatile. The portrait itself is stylized: a figure in hat and muted tones, rendered in brown, pink, and green. To its right, a fragment of Cellarius’
Harmonia Macrocosmica appears in navy and brown—cosmic geometry folded into the genomic field.
The Tarot card—Ten of Wands—sits beneath the Roman numeral X, pressed against a pink damask background. A signal of accumulation, burden, and quiet collapse.
Agatha Christie withholds its mystery. A canvas of symbolic layering and emotional drift, designed to stretch across the wall and open Phase Two with
tension, and unresolved logic.
