A meditative essay on the paradoxical value of black ink as a signifier of everything and nothing, and sometimes both at the same time, in early- and pre-modern literary history (the work of Laurence Sterne, Robert Fludd, Matthias Huss) and modern visual art (Kazimir Malevich).
Commissioned by editor Sami Jalili for his independent literary journal E.R.O.S., as part of Issue 5 on 'Death'.
