Geometric Sculpture

btcforrest (37)in #art • 8 years ago

A sculpture I made in 2014. In this piece I looked at the geometry which occurs in natural minerals like Pyrite and using 3d modelling software, I created a form which seems to followed a generative mathematical order. This piece looked at knowledge as it exists in the human and natural realm.

Details:
Hive, marine plywood, paint, 800x800mm,
Interplay, Curated by Mary Cremin, Dublin, Ireland.

Thanks, it literally took hundreds of hours! all the cubes were individually cut out or a 4x8ft sheet of wood. I havent no although I did play around with making an animation using that shape. Its a really beautiful fractal.
