Negative space paper alphabet

Negative space paper alphabet

Experimenting with negative space, Madeline chose to place the slices based on the structure of the letter; For example, the letter “X” is a symmetrical letter, so the line exists in the very center of the letter creating an almost mirrored effect. The letter “B” however, is not a symmetrical letter but it does have a strong vertical line, thus, the slice utilizes this element. Madeline used cardboard and white paper to explore value.
