Synopsis
In this work series, I am working on sculptures that are produced by mathematical equations and can be realized in the real world via 3D printing (rapid prototyping). Some of them, become my models for the monumental process.
What interests me more in this series of work, is the chaotic geometry that can be produced by the employment of the parametric process, while at the same time a well structured mathematical concept is hidden beneath a seemingly random situation.
In this world, Falcon, the divine ruler, is looking for a new Saviour. A couple of illusionists’, Gem and Jane’s, youngest children, seem to be the ideal candidates. They are unique: small size full grown up lookalikes. In order to persuade the two parents give up their youngest, Falcon offers them his rapid prototyping buildings as their new home. Gem and Jane hesitate but Falcon insists: the guided tour over the buildings will continue until they give their consent...
