Cajsa Holmstrand has always used a common name for her works. She calls her pictures and sculptures “Relations”. She has been dealing with relations between a different number of cubes which have created a series of events between themselves and the observer. But at the same time, since the 70’s been interested in more obvious and measurable relations. Her thoughts have been occupied with Pythagoras and his famous theorem about the relations between the two smaller sides and the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle, and the possibility of making the theorem valid for a three-dimensional image as well. To prove the contrary, i.e. that a similar mathematical relationship in three or more dimensions is absolutely impossible, has occupied mathematicians for centuries.
