In this work, Fung laid multiple pages of handwritten numbers upon a flat surface together with some uninscribed triangles and rectangles. Placing a sheet of paper atop this collage, he outlined the numbers that were visible in a uniform style. Although the sequenced time within each traced series is legible, this logical progression is disrupted by flattening and juxtaposing these overlapping, multi-oriented, and partially obfuscated numbers into a coherent but jumbled whole.
