Black Square is an artist book from the Split Shapes series, which explores the fragmentation of a whole and the enduring potential for reconnection, even after permanent separation.
Inspired by the Tangram puzzle, the book features seven black paper shapes attached to acetate pages. When stacked correctly, they form a complete square, though the image shifts depending on the page order. The translucent paper-covered square openings on both covers reveal these changing configurations, inviting dynamic interpretations.
