Statement

Through my art I make visible the beauty and wonder I see in the often abstract world of mathematics. I enjoy giving visual representations to mathematical concepts such as number, form, and process. I often use patterns that convey messages at multiple levels and scales using a wide variety of mathematical elements and media. Some of my work contains fine detail that allows the art to be viewed differently depending on the distance between the viewer and the art. Another prevalent theme in my work is symmetry, where the overall pattern is created by repeated rotation or translation of a smaller very similar units.

Hotel Key Cards

2023

Additional info

This homage to travel uses sixty distinct hotel key cards to form a globe. The hotel key cards are connected at their corners using a pattern obtained by replacing each edge of the icosidodecahedron with a hotel key card. The 20 triangular and 12 pentagonal faces of the icosidodecahedron are transformed into pentagonal and triangular open spaces respectively. Similarly, the 30 degree-four vertices of the icosidodecahedron are transformed into open rhombi.
