Four figures, four raised fists, four cleats. The silhouettes lock firmly into the black quay band, and the alternating red caps prevent the repetition from becoming a diagrammatic frieze.

The rope does not deliver the stated continuity. Each fist releases a separate ochre fall toward the cleat below it. No visible segment rises from a far horn, passes behind the next torso, and reaches the next fist. At the cleats, the broad black inset reads as a filled seat rather than an exposed central bar crossing in front of rope. The final tail is clear, but a terminal cannot prove a route whose three intermediate spans are absent.

At wall distance this is four workers beside four fittings. It is not one line seated four times, and I would not hang it.
