With her reliefs, Dada entrusts her colours to jutting surfaces, to many-sided tiles of various heights and different orientations. In this way she presents us with a colourful, scale model of a city. The blocks that are lined up one behind the other (at times higher, at times lower), form hollows, reach peaks, capture shadows and throw them back out. These iridescent plateaus become moving spaces, the sides of a geometric body that rhythmically rises and falls.
