Construction VI

278 Calacatta oro building blocks
Black paper and white paint

(2019)

The work consists of 278 Calacatta oro building blocks and a framed hand-drawn construction drawing.

The blocks have been cut and sanded into 13 different basic shapes, based on wooden toy blocks. These are built into a construction, based on the construction drawing on black paper.

The blocks are not affixed in any way, but placed on top of each other in a specific building order.
