Finding beauty in Mathematical surfaces.
Geometric sculpture of Minimal surface bound by Prime Knot 8_19
and a Circle. Presented in acrylic holder 28 cm tall. Traditional
(symmetrical form) Prime Knot 8_19, as shown in my second
sculpture, also known as 4-leaf Trefoil knot or Torus Knot 3_4 or
just Celtic knot has 8 intersections and positioned 19th in the
Prime Knot chart. Minimal surface presents natural shape of high
surface tension material (soap film for example) as it would take
between these two boundaries - Plateau problem.
