Statement
I work with geometric, mind teasing objects and with sculptures of different materials like metal, paper and clay. I also do digital works. Most of my sketching is done with the computer.

Flowering Dodecahedron
50x50x50 cm
Stainless steel
2013
I am 'obsessed' with dodecahedrons and sometimes out of sheer idleness a form appears. It usually starts with a paper model and if it seems interesting, I get it laser-cut in thin plated steel.
Here 12 minor dodecahedrons are welded together to build a flowering like sphere.
