Compound Geometries



These two images illustrate compound geometries created using the inside of a wheel rim. I took the inner portion where the bolts usually are and inverted or mirrored them back to back. Then repeated that volume to create a strip or "bar" form.

  1. I like the abstract pattern crated in the top image. The white space coming through the wheels along with the way it is rendered plays with depth perceptions. The second image is very interesting.

  2. Does this pattern only include one object that is mirrored, or are there multiple iterations from the matrix present?

  3. its one object that is mirrored and put together into a bar. I posted this as a working model that may be changed after today's class.

  4. I like that the original form of the wheel rim is indiscernible and now what is created is a study of forms that helped created the wheel rim. Very interesting images.
