Xerox Bauhaus

Photocopied geometry, cut-paper surfaces, and a rough architecture of scraps.

Xerox Bauhaus is built from photocopied blocks, cut-paper interruptions, and the strict pleasure of black geometry against worn white stock.

The piece started as a stack of discarded layout tests and overexposed scans. Those surfaces were cut back into rectangles, misaligned on purpose, then run through the machine again until the edges picked up drag and noise.

What remains is both orderly and damaged: a composition that wants the language of modernism but can only speak through residue.
