Spark Stack

Lumen & Logic

A brand-poster stack of large flat colour planes, every one snapped to a single coarse module lattice: rectangular blocks, quarter-discs, half-discs and circles whose box corners land on lattice nodes, whose radii are whole numbers of modules and whose arc centres are lattice nodes — so edges from unrelated planes line up exactly and the whole mass reads as cut from one sheet. Planes are chain-grown outward from a first one, each landing flush against a neighbour and then biting into it, so the composition is one connected interlocking mass rather than a scatter, and a few deliberately run off the canvas so the sheet reads as a crop out of something larger. Everything is opaque and painted strictly back to front: a plane hides what it covers, there is no outline, no shadow and no transparency anywhere, and depth is occlusion alone. Most planes take one flat saturated hue; a seeded share instead carry a multi-stop gradient ramp drawn from a contiguous run of the palette, every one of them along the same shared angle so separated shapes read as the same material, and a small share take the ink as a near-black counterweight. Whatever lattice cells the mass leaves empty are measured and dressed with fine black line glyphs at a uniform hairline weight — four-point sparkles, ray bursts, curl-headed arrows, dotted rules, dot matrices, thin rings, lattice arcs and crosses — placed only into open ground so a mark never touches a plane. The mass lays out as a column, a diagonal drift, a corner weight or a loose scatter.
