Asemic Gesture

By Nik.Ink

A work from Nik.ink's first collection,
The title serves as a mission statement not only for the work but for the general concept of the artist's style, not so much for the lack of legible meaning in the marks he creates but rather for the concept and feelings the artist wants to evoke even without it.

What are words but simple sounds or signs to which we attribute meaning, and what is more important: their form or the feeling and thought they evoke?
Thus, the sign loses meaning, leaving space only for the sensation it arouses.

In the specific case of "Asemic Gesture," the artist wants to bring us closer to a warmer, more Arabic or mystical space, inspiring adventure and curiosity among the desert sands, finding the answer in signs that speak differently to each viewer.
The key to the desert oasis is in looking, have you found yours?
