Artist Blacksmith specializing in forged sculpture. My inspiration is drawn form Geometry and Mathematics, using there foundational rules as a guide throughout the designing and making process to produce work that blends a raw forged aesthetic with the intrinsic beauty of mathematical form.
Geometry in Perspective A collection of 3 forged sculptures, each piece is forged out of one straight length of material with no cutting or welding involved. Inspired by Euclidean and Ideal geometry, these forged sculptures transform planar designs into three-dimensional forms through precise rotations. Each piece merges mathematical purity with a raw, forged aesthetic, revealing the intrinsic beauty of geometry. This work celebrates the intersection of art and science, highlighting the enduring elegance of geometric principles. Geometry in Perspective aims to articulate these foundational principles to compose their planula (2-dimensional) constructions. During their construction following the postulates of Euclid to dictate the processes of point, line and plane and demonstrates how the shapes that span from them can relate and interact with one other. Utilizing the precise rotations of 90o, 108o and 270o, these 2-dimensional compositions are translated through space, shifting a once flat design into 3-dimensional form. This pure, mathematical process is concluded with a forge aesthetic that adheres to the raw simplicity of their axiomatic constructions.
