CUBICLES

The Cubicles series by Thomas Canto consists of meticulously hand-painted panels set within acrylic glass frames, inside which nylon threads are stretched to form intricate spatial compositions. These works explore layered perspectives and optical effects, creating a dynamic dialogue between surface, depth, and transparency. Each piece functions as a self-contained environment, blending geometry, light, and structure to reflect the artist’s ongoing investigation of architectural space and visual perception

PERPETUAL INFINITIES

PERPETUAL INFINITIES

2025102 × 102 × 13 cmMixed media on MDF, acrylic glass, nylon wires

A square field of white nylon threads stretched within an acrylic glass frame. The lines converge toward a central axis and multiply into a dense web, so that the depth of the work changes with the light and the viewer’s position.

ON REQUEST
PERPETUAL INFINITIES
STRUCTURAL INFINITIES

STRUCTURAL INFINITIES

202150 × 50 × 10 cmPhotograph, alubond, nylon wires

A circular work in which a photograph of architecture, mounted on aluminium composite, is crossed by stretched nylon threads. The lines extend the perspectives of the image and build a second, suspended structure in front of it.

ON REQUEST
SUPERPOSED STRUCTURES

SUPERPOSED STRUCTURES

202150 × 50 × 10 cmPhotograph, alubond, nylon wires

A companion piece to Structural Infinities. Fragments of architecture in deep blues are overlaid with nylon threads, so that two structures, one printed and one physical, sit on top of each other.

ON REQUEST
STRUCTURED ATTRACTION

STRUCTURED ATTRACTION

2020100 × 151 × 10 cmAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This wall sculpture compresses a dense field of architectural lines into a single vertical plunge. Nylon wires over painted MDF, held behind acrylic glass, draw the eye toward a dark central recession. The city rendered as a system of forces rather than a fixed image.

AVAILABLE
STRUCTURED ATTRACTION
MULTIPLIED CROSSINGS

MULTIPLIED CROSSINGS

2020100 × 149 × 10 cmAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This wall sculpture looks upward through a multiplying lattice of towers, their edges crossing and recrossing toward a distant vanishing point. Nylon wires over painted MDF build a perspective that tightens as it rises. The vertical pressure of the city as one ascending structure.

AVAILABLE
MULTIPLIED CROSSINGS
MONOLITHIC PERSPECTIVES

MONOLITHIC PERSPECTIVES

2020100 × 149 × 10 cmAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This wall sculpture frames a monumental upward view where solid volumes and fine linear networks press against one another. MDF, nylon wires and steel behind acrylic glass hold depth and shadow in tension. At once architectural mass and dissolving structure, weight and movement.

AVAILABLE
MONOLITHIC PERSPECTIVES
GRAVITATIONAL VOID

GRAVITATIONAL VOID

2020102 × 152 × 10 cmAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This wall sculpture pulls a field of buildings toward a single gravitational point, where dense construction gives way to an open dark void. Nylon wires over painted MDF sustain the tension between accumulation and emptiness. The city as a force field, ordered and unstable at once.

AVAILABLE
GRAVITATIONAL VOID
CIRCULAR REFLECTIONS

CIRCULAR REFLECTIONS

202150 × 50 × 10 cm (circular composition)Acrylic on forex, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This circular wall sculpture reduces the architectural language to its quietest state: a fine grid of nylon wires across a pale surface, crossed by a few decisive diagonals. Behind acrylic glass in a steel frame, it holds light rather than colour: space suspended in stillness.

AVAILABLE
CIRCULAR REFLECTIONS
NIGHT SHIFT

NIGHT SHIFT

2022110 × 110 × 5 cm (circular composition)Acrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

Titled by the coordinates of its site, this circular composition maps a place through structure, not depiction. Concentric rings and vertical bands build a dense field where architecture, signal and orbit overlap, location read as a system of intersecting lines and frequencies.

AVAILABLE
NIGHT SHIFT
SUPERPOSED DIMENSIONS

SUPERPOSED DIMENSIONS

2020Private collectionAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

Superposed Dimensions layers fragmented architectural perspectives within a circular frame. Nylon wires cross the black-and-white composition, creating a shifting interplay of depth, transparency and movement as the viewer changes position.

AVAILABLE
SUPERPOSED DIMENSIONS
LINKING SCALES

LINKING SCALES

202050 × 50 × 10 cm (circular composition)Acrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This circular wall sculpture is built almost entirely from nylon thread, drawn taut across the surface into a dense radial web. Light passes through and around the wires, so the piece shifts with the viewer’s position. Structure and scale linked into a single luminous field.

AVAILABLE
LINKING SCALES
MIRRORING VOID

MIRRORING VOID

2019123 × 123 × 15 cmAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This square wall sculpture turns the city downward, folding a dense network of structures around a single grey volume at its centre. Acrylic on forex, nylon wires and steel behind acrylic glass hold a vertiginous, mirrored depth, the central void both anchor and absence.

AVAILABLE
MIRRORING VOID
INFINITY GRIDS

INFINITY GRIDS

2018122 × 197 × 10 cmMixed media on wood, acrylic glass, nylon wires

This wall sculpture saturates the surface with a grid pushed to the edge of legibility, its lines accelerating outward from a dense core. Mixed media on wood with nylon wires behind acrylic glass holds order and chaos in tension. A structure that seems to extend beyond its frame.

AVAILABLE
INFINITY GRIDS
DIMENSIONAL DARK MATTER

DIMENSIONAL DARK MATTER

202050 × 50 × 10 cm (circular composition)Acrylic on forex, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This circular wall sculpture drives a field of architecture toward a dark central mass, fine bright lines tearing across the black like motion at speed. Acrylic on forex, nylon wires and steel behind acrylic glass sustain depth and velocity, the unseen structure behind the city.

AVAILABLE
DIMENSIONAL DARK MATTER
INFINITY BLAST

INFINITY BLAST

2017154 × 245 × 10 cmAcrylic on forex, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This wall sculpture detonates a field of blue shards and lines outward from a single point, fracturing architecture into pure trajectory. Acrylic on forex with nylon wires behind acrylic glass builds a charged, prismatic depth; colour as energy, the city dissolved into force.

AVAILABLE
INFINITY BLAST
CERULEAN WHIRLWIND

CERULEAN WHIRLWIND

2017103 × 167 × 10 cmAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

This wall sculpture spins a lattice of blue planes and lines into a deep central vortex. Acrylic on MDF, nylon wires and steel behind acrylic glass hold the spiralling structure in suspended motion. Architectural geometry turned into a current, ordered and continuously in flux.

AVAILABLE
CERULEAN WHIRLWIND
STRUCTURED EXPANSION

STRUCTURED EXPANSION

202150 × 50 × 10 cmAcrylic on MDF, nylon wires, acrylic glass, stainless steel

Structured Expansion explores geometric patterns and structural principles found throughout nature, from microscopic formations to large-scale systems, and echoed in contemporary architecture.
