About this work

This drawing looks like a mix of a machine and a science lab. It’s all sketched in white lines on black paper. You see gears, dials, and strange tools with labels like "time constant" and "psychotropic variables." The whole thing looks like it’s powered by some kind of weird energy source. The labels aren’t just random—they’re real science and philosophy terms. It’s like the artist turned a machine into a puzzle of ideas.
