Colored tissue paper. Delicate, fragile, light artworks yet at the same time aesthetically solid, strong and sure. These dense contrasts give birth to the most meaningful, elegant and refined artworks.. However, the sunlight makes short the life of colors on tissue paper: they degrade and disappear in a short time. Through this operation, turning these artworks to digital format, the colors become eternal because they find a correspondence in mathematical concepts.
