In continuity with Sébastien de Ganay's research on folding since the early 1990s and inspired by everyday post-its, which the artist uses for notes and sketches, the series of works Folded Flats explores the folding possibilities of the square in a variety of forms and formats. In a serial working method, de Ganay produces minimalist abstract wall sculptures made of aluminum. With playful ease, the artist uses folds to create spatial bodies with spontaneous geometries that reveal both front and back. The Folded Flats can be classified between second and third dimension, between surface and space and aim at the borderline area between genres within art: "When I hang a Folded Flat on the wall, it is both a picture and an object, and in any case a bas-relief, almost a sculpture.” The series of Flip Flop Folded Flats is exemplary for this: The wall objects made of aluminium plates are folded several times in the manner of origami and animate the viewer to mentally reconstruct the seemingly preceding folding gestures. Lacquered with a special interference varnish, they create a mysterious glimmer and depending on the viewing angle, the colour spectrum of the work changes
