Concept
The roots of this work
lie in a small model made of paper strips. I then went on to make proportional
and functionality models in cardboard, without the aid of a computer. What was
important to me was that the lightness of the form and the behaviour of the
strips remained legible, which is why I chose an ash surface veneer for the final
composition. Four layers are soaked in water and then glued to form a ribbon,
after which the whole thing is shaped into the right form using screw clamps.
