Strung across a room corner with a tall window, three large square pieces of organza in cyan, magenta, and yellow are layered in front of each other. The artist walks behind the fabric, then lifts and folds the last layer into a triangle, revealing two new colors before tossing the fabric over the top. On either side of the video image, digital color matching the revealed colors fades in and out. The lifting, folding, and falling actions are repeated for all three colors before the artist walks off screen.
