Orange Square, 2009
Rubber and loctite on wood
22 x 22 in / 55 x 55 cm

"Orange Square," is a dense mesh square that uses the word orange as a construction unit. In English it's the color and the fruit (thus the shape). In Yiddish and Arabic the fruit is suggested in the color and in Hebrew the color has its own word.

This work superimposes two mental projections. One introduced through sensory input re: I see a black. The second rendered via reading, re: I imagine Orange.

"I felt only night within me and it was then that I conceived the new art, which I called Suprematism."
- Kazimir Malevich, The Non-Objective World, 1927
