Before the Fold: 2027 Black and White Wall Calendar, Studies for a Lamp (EU & Rest of World)

Twelve sea creatures, drawn in one line, on a large A3 sheet.These are the drawings the lamps came from. Before an animal became a folded paper pendant, it was a sketch: a search for the shape, made by hand, with no AI at any step of the drawing. The line is still looking. It has not found the geometry yet.Six creatures across twelve months. In the first half of the year each one is alone. In the second half it comes back with its young: the whale with a calf in July, the sea turtle in October, the jellyfish in November.Each of the six became a lamp in the end, and none of them looks much like its drawing: the whale, the koi, the octopus, the sea turtle, the jellyfish and the goldfish. The sheet shows where the shape started, before it was folded into geometry.January to December 2027. The week starts on Monday, and week numbers run down the left margin.Printed on demand on premium matte paper, A3 (11.7 by 16.5 inches), wire bound at the top with a single hole for hanging.
