Pyramid-II

Pyramid II - Table

The perfect beauty of geometrical form has fascinated humankind since Antiquity, but our computer age is particularly capable of unfolding the infinite richness of nature before our eyes, like an origami. Indeed, by zooming in and by modulation, Fenhann transforms complex geometrical principles into stunning sculptural forms.

Made for the exhibition "Japanometry" at Galerie Maria Wettergren in 2015, the table-sculpture Pyramid II combines computer technology with Japanese craftsmanship. With Pyramid II, Rasmus Fenhann explores the meanders of pure geometrical form through origami-inspired wood constructions.

Process

Eight triangles are joined together to form a double Pyramid. The double pyramid is one of the strongest and most harmonious polygons and it is also the natural shape of a raw diamond. Then the pyramids are puzzled together in a complex mathematical shape.
