What is the simplest way to teach a visual system? Inspired by Sol LeWitt's Four Basic Kinds of Lines & Colour, I created an artist book that's one part art and one part instruction manual. Each spread pairs a gradient with its transformation, teaching readers to recognize patterns and understand the underlying logic through repetition and variation. The design stays constant in black; the color comes from the pages, randomized for each copy, making every book a unique sequence.
