Code is an anamorphic drawing and changes from our point of view.
When observed from the side, it appears to us like an unknown alphabet, or a secret code, made of many small colored particles; or it becomes a rational pattern of small squares of various sizes and distances, if looked at frontally.
This texture plays between surface and depth, questioning our visual perception: small squares drawn and aligned, or simple lines interspersed with empty spaces.
The coloring, made in enamels of various tonality and nuances, also creates a further dimension, like a shaded pictorial surface, which reflects the luminous spectrum of colors.
