Triptych is a wall inside a gallery. To see the project, you pass through one of three doors, identical, but eccentrically placed along a long corridor. The redundancy comes from a design that was never finished. What was intended as three entrances to three rooms became an unplanned gallery nested in a suite of offices. Triptych considers the strangeness of this condition through the construction of a partition wall. It doubles the existing threshold, drawing its form from conflicting interpretations of foreground and background.
