This square painting is an homage to the Golden Ratio, a mathematical proportion considered for centuries to be the epitome of harmony and beauty. A simple rectangle, whose sides are in the proportion of the Golden Ratio, fills almost the entire canvas. The surface itself is completely covered by the decimal places of this irrational number (35212 to be exact).

The endless repetition of the number sequence creates a hypnotic effect and invites the viewer to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of mathematics.
