Each letter was converted into a number, and the sum of these values determined chromatic and linear patterns. The artist categorized words by grammatical function—nouns, verbs, adjectives—to influence tonal dominance. Lines were built through cross-hatching, arranged according to calculated sequences. The composition, confined to a fixed 25 x 30 cm format, was transferred from rice paper underdrawings, preserving precision in execution.

This piece emerged during a period when the artist increasingly turned away from figurative representation toward systems-based abstraction. It reflects his engagement with esoteric linguistic traditions and numerology, likely influenced by mystical interpretations of sacred writings. The work was produced in series, with consistent dimensions and methodology, suggesting a deliberate, repetitive practice rather than spontaneous creation.

The artist’s method aligns with mid-20th-century explorations of language as material—paralleling concrete poetry and conceptual art. His use of numerology and grammatical analysis echoes occult and hermetic traditions, while his structured approach resonates with systems art and early algorithmic practices. The work exists at the intersection of spiritual inquiry and formalist experimentation.

This body of work contributed to a broader shift in abstract art toward rule-bound, non-representational systems. Though not widely exhibited during his lifetime, the method influenced later artists interested in the intersection of language, mathematics, and visual form. Its legacy lies in demonstrating how textual logic can generate autonomous visual structures without reliance on traditional iconography.
