Description
White gel pen on black paper: a lattice tears itself open along a meandering seam, like fabric pulled until it runs. Hoff's 2018 listing gives the recipe — Sakura Gelly Roll on Fabriano Black Black, an uncut A3 sheet with a roughly 30 × 30 cm drawing area — and that year his drawings were coming out of an experimental generative system he was writing in Common Lisp. Signed 1/1 8ff3729 AH18; the hash, per his naming convention, is the git commit of the code that drew it.
