2 Squares Making Four Triangles by Vera Molnar, created in 2010, presents itself as a subtle exercise in geometry and color. Composed of two canvases, each measuring 100 x 100 cm, the work explores the deconstruction of the square to create a play of triangles, highlighting a recurring theme in the artist's work: the tension between mathematical rigor and visual sensitivity.

In this piece, the choice of colors—orange and white—adds vibrancy to the composition while maintaining a certain sobriety. The orange, a warm and energetic color, contrasts with the white, symbolizing purity and emptiness, thus creating a strong visual dynamic. The work oscillates between order and chaos, while being structured by the geometric simplicity of the square divided into triangles.

Molnar, a true pioneer of digital art and fascinated by mathematics, is known for her analytical approach to artistic creation. This diptych perfectly illustrates her process: both systematic and intuitive. Here, the artist explores the infinite variations of the square, a fundamental geometric shape, demonstrating that even in apparent simplicity, there is an inexhaustible richness of possibilities.
