# Paper Reliefs by Larisa Semke

> Every paper relief by Larisa Semke in one place: one-of-a-kind works folded by hand, the newest one first.

- [No. 23 – Expina](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/23/) — August 2026, 101 × 51 × 12 cm. A creature of black shells whose neon yellow undersides light up with the angle of view — strict geometry with a strange look.
- [No. 22 – Primorbis](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/22/) — May 2026, 101 × 51 × 15 cm. The (dis)order of prime numbers as spatial form — a pull toward the centre and a fragment of a potentially boundless system.
- [No. 21 – Avimera](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/21/) — March 2026, 101 × 51 × 10 cm. A swarm of abstracted bird silhouettes winding organically through a rigid hexagonal grid.
- [No. 20 – Transfluera](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/20/) — January 2026, 158 × 106 × 9 cm (can be disassembled into 4 parts). A rhythmic flow that shifts with the viewing angle — water surfaces where currents cross and overlay one another.
- [No. 19 – Astrophagen](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/19/) — August 2025, 70 × 50 × 3 cm. Forms shifting from angular to rounded, unfolding rhythmically — metamorphosis as a principle linking nature, culture and cosmic order.
- [No. 18 – Neurogrid](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/18/) — May 2025, 70 × 50 × 4 cm. Bright red channels run through a strict grid like nerve paths or root networks — a synthesis of technology and nature.
- [No. 17 – Fractavia](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/17/) — March 2025, 90 × 70 × 8.5 cm. A spiral, fractal pattern in earthy brown that comes alive through its shadows — like a pulsating creature or a gathering swarm.
- [No. 16 – Orbium](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/16/) — February 2025, 81 × 81 × 11 cm, sold. Sacred geometry between mandala and spreading rings of water — a symmetrical form at once meditative and futuristic.
- [No. 15 – Sonova](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/15/) — January 2025, 100 × 70 × 6 cm, sold. Sound and forest in a grid. The staggered elements act like an equalizer, making the invisible vibrations of nature visible.
- [No. 14 – Frigoris](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/14/) — October 2024, 92 × 70 × 7 cm. Cool clarity in white and blue — a faceted surface like ice, seeming to flow slowly into a deep blue background.
- [No. 13 – Exoresonance](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/13/) — July 2024, 70 × 70 × 6.5 cm. Recycled paper with residues from coffee production, in concentric waves. A golden ring disturbs the pattern — humanity within the cycles of nature.
- [No. 12 – Volatus](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/12/) — May 2024, 100 × 70 × 8.5 cm, sold. Floating black circles on fine stems that, depending on the angle, gather into a swarm formation or an unfamiliar living creature.
- [No. 11 – Pentominoes](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/11/) — April 2024, 101 × 81 × 9 cm. Concrete geometric abstraction between order and chaos — the apparent simplicity of white paper conceals a second, larger order.
- [No. 10 – Singularity](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/10/) — February 2024, 71 × 71 × 10 cm, sold. Light against darkness around a black hole. Single white spikes hold out against the pull, the last trace of a hidden energy.
- [No. 9 – Luminex](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/9/) — January 2024, 81 × 81 × 9 cm. From luminous yellow to deep red — a spiral that captures the passage from sunlight into dusk and gathers the light at its centre.
- [No. 8 – Tripod](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/8/) — November 2023, 101 × 81 × 11 cm, sold. Three arms wind outward from the centre in a spiral. In the play of shadow the relief seems to unfold and contract again.
- [No. 7 – 100 Fragments](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/7/) — September 2023, 101 × 81 × 7 cm. What looks randomly scattered follows an order. From a peak at the centre the relief flattens outward until volume and plane merge.
- [No. 6 – World](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/6/) — August 2023, 101 × 81 × 9 cm. A world map whose continents rise from the surface as an elevation relief — topography translated into pure white and cast shadow.
- [No. 5 – Spike Flower](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/5/) — July 2023, 70 × 70 × 10 cm. Opened tips release the colour hidden inside. A glimpse into the concealed, arguing for the fragility and beauty of our ecosystems.
- [No. 4 – QR Code](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/4/) — June 2023, 71 × 71 × 12 cm. A working QR code, curved and made tangible — a bridge between digital symbolism and handcrafted paper art.
- [No. 3 – Pyramid Wave](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/3/) — April 2023, 98 × 75 × 8 cm, sold. A wave flowing across the white surface, alive in the light — movement and rhythm captured in an otherwise motionless medium.
- [No. 2 – Hexalum](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/2/) — January 2023, 101 × 81 × 7 cm. A honeycomb-like structure with a rising rhythm, whose coloured gaps read like translucent light and lend it an illusory depth.
- [No. 1 – Pyramid Relief](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/1/) — November 2022, 98 × 75 × 6 cm, sold. A relief that breaks past its own edge. Tilted pyramids form an ascending diagonal that is set in motion by raking light.
- [No. 0 – Beginning](https://larigami.de/en/artworks/0/) — October 2022, 42 × 27.9 × 5.5 cm. A trial run became the beginning of everything — the first folded paper relief, from which an entire series of works grew.
