Composition Géométrique No. 1

A study in pure form, Composition Géométrique No. 1 draws inspiration from the Bauhaus movement’s precision and the Parisian modernist salons of the 1920s and 1930s - where geometry, architecture, and fine art converged.

In this singular work, a perfect circle emerges from a field of vertical lines, creating a rhythmic interplay of light and shadow that shifts with the viewer’s gaze. Hand-cut from thick, museum-quality paper in the tradition of Japanese kirie, each incision is both deliberate and sculptural. The composition is mounted on a tonal backer, floated for depth, and framed in warm honey oak - a restrained nod to modernist material palettes. Measuring 30”W x 40”H, it is a rare piece that speaks equally to minimalism, craftsmanship, and design history.
