Ignacio Uriarte - The A-4 cycle (2004) - opgerolde A4 bladen

When we roll up sheets of paper (for example when we walk with documents from one desk to the other) we turn a flat rectangle into a three-dimensional, cylindrical body. By putting thousands of the resulting bodies together, we form again a rectangular space with a flat surface. The final size is proportional to the 29.7 x 21 cm of an A-4 sheet. The tension and continuous physical adaptation between the bodies create patterns comparable to natural phenomena.
