This is a grid of 48 small rectangles, each filled with a different shade of color. The top row moves from black to deep purple, while the middle rows shift through blues, greens, yellows, and oranges. The bottom row ends with bright reds and dark blacks again. The colors don’t mix—they’re all separate, like a puzzle of pure hues. This isn’t a painting but a print, made by pressing ink onto paper in exact rows. If you like this, check out Olafur Eliasson.
