Statement
Art can be a fun way to explore different realities. I enjoy creating works that explore and celebrate the beautiful patterns and symmetry found all around us. Transforming abstract mathematical concepts into tangible forms, such as spiraling and knotted glass sculptures, reveals the intriguing connections that arise when art and mathematics come together.

"Tristix 24 Line 4 Twist Knot" is an intricate glass knot created using a tristix arrangement, one of the six invariant cubic rod packings. This sculpture precisely welds together 24 clear glass rods, connecting them with four twists and 20 half-loops to form a continuous embedded knot. The transparency of the glass illuminates the knot’s internal symmetry and the subtle complexities of its continuous path, allowing light to dance within and highlight the geometric beauty of the structure.
