morsure, An engraving on steel. A sequence of empty chairs forms a broad spiral across a deserted tidal flat. The nearest chair stands firmly in shallow water in the foreground, large enough for its back, seat, and four legs to be understood. Each successive chair is slightly smaller through distance, following the spiral toward a distant central point without overlapping into an unreadable cluster. The arrangement leaves generous channels of open water between its turns. Reflections remain connected to the chairs and break gently where small ripples cross the surface. The horizon is low, with a narrow strip of land visible far away and an enormous cloudy sky above. One chair near the center faces in the opposite direction, creating a subtle interruption that becomes apparent only after looking longer. Keep the furniture ordinary and consistent in design, with no people, lettering, or additional symbolic objects. The scene should feel both communal and mysteriously abandoned, as though a gathering had left behind only its structure. Let repetition, distance, and the single reversed chair carry the emotional ambiguity of the image.
