# No. 7 – 100 Fragments

What looks randomly scattered follows an order. From a peak at the centre the relief flattens outward until volume and plane merge.

- **Completed:** September 14, 2023
- **Size:** 101 × 81 × 7 cm
- **Edition:** Unique artwork, handcrafted
- **Material:** Paper 120 g/m², extra smooth
- **Substrate:** BRAMANTE Whiteboard, bright white, 1820 g/m², 101 × 81 × 0.25 cm
- **Frame:** white lacquered wood
- **Parts:** 100 pyramids

The presented work consists of 100 individually folded paper pyramids arranged in a seemingly random scatter, yet upon closer inspection revealing a well-considered harmony and organic flow.

In the center, the pyramids reach their greatest height, creating a central peak area. Towards the outside, they gradually become flatter, creating a seamless transition between dimensionality and the flat plane.

The white of the paper interacts with light, creating multifaceted shadows that highlight the geometry of each element and produce a lively interplay of individual forms.
