pathos /pà·thos,-tos/

  • Rosalita Baldassin

In Ancient Greek, pathos indicates the irrational part, within the human being, while the rational part is defined as logos. This polypropylene module evolves from the circle, anapparently perfect and rational shape, which yet contains in itself the irrational number π (pi). From the rationality and geometry of the 2D shape, irrational aggregations evolve and develop in the space, creating potentially endless chains. It's impossible to tell the inner surface apart from the outer one, lines and surfaces hug eachother, creating interesting overlaps and intersections. Each module interacts with light and shadow, evoking suggestive and poetic images.
