Artist Tinaye Makuyana uses paper to create sculptures that are playful, deceptive and curious. Her work is crafted to achieve a visual balance of geometric forms, with careful consideration regarding colour, form, and composition.

 

Through the process of paper folding Tinaye explores the interplay of light, shadow, and geometry by replicating the shapes, depth and dimension found in architectural features. Optical illusions created using intense colour challenge audiences to question their surroundings and encourage contemplation about their perceptions of reality.
