Diagram as Form

Teresa Burga — Diagram as Form

Lines organize information without pictorial depth.

Relations are schematic.

Form clarifies structure.

How does structure appear?

A diagram is typically treated as a tool, but representation is not the point here.

Relation itself becomes form.

What persists is structure clarified through schematic order.
