For this project, the assigned task was to create a subtractive object inside a volume of 21x21x21cm. The chosen solution was reduced to the minimum intervention necessary to change the tectonic structure of the cube into a Möbius-band-like object by inserting two 6mm wide cuts which touch in the center. This was realised in plaster, using three thin plexiglas sheets for each cut, enabling to remove the middle sheet and then the lateral ones without damaging the cast.
