This series of sculpture studies explores structural form using simple materials—grey chipboard and a matte knife—to create two-dimensional elements that combine into three-dimensional constructions. Following strict guidelines, no glue or fastening devices were allowed.
Presented here are several variations, each relying on a “magic angle” that Eisenhauer calculated mathematically. The possibilities for form and scale are virtually limitless—from large-scale sculptures in Corten steel for park settings to smaller, intricate models.
This is a project the gallery has been developing with the artist over several years, with the goal of bringing this sculpture to life.
