The Recursion
The Recursion is a series of works using geometric recursion to create flowing architectural forms inspired by the creative process. Each piece in the series begins with a simple form which recursively loops on itself. The form quickly becomes more complex eventually resulting in a final reveal once the process is complete. The Recursion is a celebration of the beauty and power of combining simple things to help us see things anew.
