TETRAHEDRON – Violett & Orange

TETRAHEDRON explores colour as a spatial phenomenon.

The painting leaves the wall and becomes a freely suspended body in space. Embedded within the geometry of a rotating tetrahedron, the relationship between colour, light and perception is continuously transformed. It is not only the viewer who moves around the work — the work itself is also in motion.

With each slow rotation, new colour constellations, shifting perspectives, and an ever-changing interplay of light and shadow emerge, continually transforming the surrounding space. Colour is no longer experienced as a static condition, but as a living process.

Within the spherical field of the tetrahedron, a space of perception unfolds in which movement, light and colour become inseparably connected. The rotation is initiated solely by the natural movement of air, revealing that change is already present within what appears to be stillness.

TETRAHEDRON forms part of my ongoing artistic research into the question:

How does colour in a work of art transform our relationship to the world?
