"Go 2(B)" belongs to a series in which Maki Haku explores the game of go — not as a literal representation of the board and stones but as a formal and conceptual analogy. Go's logic of territory, the quiet confrontation between black and white, the accumulation of small placements into large strategic formations — all of these map productively onto his abstract compositional practice. The game's visual simplicity (black stones on a white grid) translates into a study in contrast and interval.
