The project
Elephant turns the recognisable outline of an elephant’s head into a three-dimensional form built from successive planes. Archicercle made the piece in plywood, combining laser cutting with hand assembly.
The layered-plane technique builds the form through a sequence of profiles. In Elephant, the arrangement of the layers defines the outstretched ears and central trunk, leaving the structure that makes up the volume exposed.
The plywood pieces were laser-cut and assembled by hand using white glue. The finished piece retains the visible rhythm of the planes as part of its visual character.
