No. 8 – Tripod Paper Relief by Larisa Semke

The Tripod is a subtle yet complex three-dimensional composition, carefully created from square paper modules to form a structured surface. The monochromatic palette, transitioning from delicate white to soft brown tones, plays with the viewer’s sensory perceptions.

The name “Tripod” is based on the three arms that wind outward from a central point. The arms unfold in an organic, almost spiral movement that gives the viewer the impression that the artwork is unfolding and contracting before their eyes.

The light falling on the different height levels of the individual modules creates a shadow play that generates depth and volume.
