A cube can be unfolded in 11 possible ways. Forms of unfolded cubes, made of orange fabric, are laid out on the floor and folded along their diagonal axis. While the imagined cubes relate to the architecture of the exhibition space the un–folded forms suggest a landscape mode.

During the conversation, the recently published artist book CutCube (2022) which results from my interest in the graphic interplay between two- and three-dimensional structures will be presented in relation to the floor sculpture. In the book, the 11 possible ways to unfold a cube are laid out on white paper, whereas the seven cuts that make it possible to unfold a cube are printed on transparent paper and related to each of the six sides of each flattened cube. Turning pages generates a flow of information to make the viewer aware of the complex interplay between both types of structures. 

The book is published with Motto Books, Berlin/Lausanne.
