A Small Piece of a Larger Road depicts a fragmented learning space, where inscriptions flood the surface like the remnants of an unknown script. The setting suggests a schoolroom, where the student is haunted by their own shadow or a ghostly double lurking just behind them. The work is dense with text, its symbols recur in various elements and places in the room, reinforcing the idea of an enigmatic language that resists comprehension.
