You see a tangled web of lines. They look like words torn apart. The artist turned letters into shapes and numbers. Here’s the odd part: he used math to design this. Each letter had a value. He added them up to make patterns. The lines follow those silent rules. Check out how he lines them up. It’s called cross-hatching. See it in his other drawings.
