Limit

ENOUGH

Material taken to the point before refusal.

Status

Proposed monumental work

The final fold cannot complete.

Concept

A sequence of folds compresses the form until the final turn remains open. The smaller studies trace that progression from plate to limit. ENOUGH holds the moment when further pressure can no longer resolve the form.
