About this work

This image shows a simple, black-and-white design. There are three large circles stacked vertically, each connected by thick, straight lines. The circles and lines create a grid-like shape with empty spaces inside. The whole thing looks like it’s made of flat, solid black ink on a white background. The artist used math to make the shapes line up perfectly. The circles and lines don’t overlap in a messy way—they fit together like puzzle pieces. Look up Tauba Auerbach to see how she plays with numbers and shapes in her other work.
