“Each piece holds a single color, yet misses the rest to form a complete rainbow.”

Guillermo Mora

This edition originates in the curved structure of the rainbow and its association with the pencil—an object likewise intrinsically tied to color. By adapting the pencil’s straight form to the rainbow’s characteristic curve, both icons transform. As a pencil, it retains all its properties except its linearity; as a rainbow, six of its seven constituent colors vanish.
