Read by Touch

1

Identity rests in the notch

Each carved hook changes the pattern enough to be known without light.

2

Low oil, dark grain, and raking highlights make every edge feel close.

3

Intimacy sets the scale

Small marks stay hand-held, private, and deliberate rather than monumental.

4

Meaning arrives slowly

A sequence is understood by fingertips before it becomes a name.
