I'm interested in our relationship with objects, how we interact with them, how we value them, and how we discard them. I often reflect these ideas in my work; how components connect, interact and move in relation to one another, how light hits it, or how a person may touch or use an object.
Many of my previous projects have an engineered quality to them- they feature sharp edges, smooth arcs, proportionate geometry and simplistic forms. My methodical way of working is derived from my interests in mathematics and science.
Projects
- Projects I've been a part of...I've collated a couple of photographs of projects where I've had a role in their production. Mainly CNC programming and machining, some a bit of drawing work. I've put this up to showcase some fantastic work I've had the pleasure to be a part of in the past couple of years. Each came with their own individual challenges - but it's all worth it when you see the end product!
- HexasphericonThis little project was born out of a fascination for shape- it's called a hexasphericon. Its surface is smoothly wrapped around the body, meaning it can roll just as a cylinder might. The great thing about it is that it sort of meanders as it rolls. It's very satisfying! I keep it on my desk as I work- giving it a roll every now and again provides a bit of relief and escape. You can see a clip of it rolling on my Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/p/BxDFMCph3CZ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_
- More CNC Joints!Last week I had an idea about creating some CNC joints. This week I developed the idea further, I took on more complex geometry and created a set of joints uniform in size. I'm able to fairly compare the designs and develop them into an object at a later date. currently I'm thinking I'll start out small, and develop a neat little box.
- World mapI traced over a World map with straight lines and began connecting the geometry to create an artistic, geometric style map. It's made from Formica laminated birch ply wood. I used a 1.5mm dia. cutter to machine away the laminate. It's an effective technique that could be great for home decor.
