“Side by Side” is a minimalist yet emotionally powerful composition that speaks about companionship, guidance, and shared direction. Executed exclusively in Indian ink on authentic vintage book pages, the artwork relies on contrast, movement, and silhouette to create depth and narrative tension. Two figures ascend diagonally across the surface — one larger, one smaller — united in motion and purpose. The strong diagonal structure introduces a sense of progression and forward momentum, while the elongated shadow reinforces the idea of time, growth, and continuity. The use of pure black ink enhances the clarity and symbolic strength of the composition, allowing the aged typography beneath to remain visible — a silent witness to the journey.
