A primary, essential gesture, the fold, becomes the origin of a complex geometry, capable of articulating space and modulating light. From a simple action emerges a layered visual language, where order and variation coexist in a delicate balance. The fold becomes an evolution, a transition from two dimensional to three dimensional, from surface to structure. Like an architectural origami, the material unfolds into a play of solids and voids, creating a rhythm in which every inclination generates a new perception and reveals a different visual intensity.

Silk, used in the purest and most linear sections, enhances this dynamic through delicate reflections that shift with the light and the viewer’s gaze. The textures brighten and darken, responding to the surrounding space in a continuous dialogue. Matte wool, on the other hand, retains the nuances and precisely defines the geometric patterns. The texture becomes the protagonist, conveying solidity and emphasizing the rhythm of the composition.
