Comes with my signed CoA Art Print. About this Work: it is a tedious intricate paper sculpture handcrafted without the use of any adhesives. Made with my original self created interlocking base fold this geometric composition contains more than 3,500 interwoven sheets of paper.
The design is an octahedra (8 sided triangular pyramid) interior fused with a complex variation of an evolved and variates 6 sided hexahedron cube. It is an architectural composition dissected through negative spaces and hollowed forms that reveal organic geometric shapes and patterns through symmetry. An exposed and visibly open interior creates diverse viewing angles (“Money Shots”) where the geometry and forms organically line up to create complex aesthetic designs through symmetry.
Extremely durable and easy to handle. This work has multiple bases and can be displayed in several positions.
It is completely handmade with a repetitive hands on process. Because of this aspect there are errors and blemishes in comparison to computer generated 3-D Art…This is something I embrace and appreciate about origami sculptures of this magnitude.
More than 20 different colors in total with triangular and square surface patterns.
Upon completion I applied by hand a clear Polycrylic enamel to reinforce an already sturdy structure and ensure long term durability. 18”x17”x19”
I am an ARTchitect, Paper Engineer, and Geometric Enthusiast - “Origami and its mathematical principles are undoubtedly the most universally consistent art form in all the cosmos" - Self taught base folds and original design sculptures and paintings. Thousands of sheets of paper without any adhesives and application of mathematical engineering process into 2-Dimensional Paintings and Drawings. I showcase and express a universal language of physical creation based upon evolving shapes and engineering geometry through a formulaic approach. It is an educational and cerebral art form centered around complex mathematical puzzles in both 2 and 3 Dimensions.
As a self taught artist I have a true affinity for the technical process and challenging aspects of physically creating and realizing designs with my own hands and brain. Everything I create is original to me. This means that I have never seen the works elsewhere. I almost never create the same design twice due to the infinitesimal amount of possible variations within these geometric structures. Pushing the limits and boundaries of Origami and mental dexterity I only challenge myself; however I may be a leader in this timeless artform. Not just in this era but through time. See less
