In Chinese calligraphy, the "I" is formed by combining the signs of the bow and the hand.
In the infinitely small, there is no more matter or energy, only information circulating, strings vibrating. Consciousness asserts itself in a vertical gesture, that of the hand, which projects into the distance and raises the eye.
This gesture is traced in charcoal on a background made up of an extremely fine line drawing on oil-tinted paper.
