Chiral Quartet
This is an installation which I called Chiral Quartet, which I did
for the show 2000 A.D. at the Vanderbilt museum in Centerport, NY,
November 1997 - January 1998. It includes a number of pieces, all
with chiral icosahedral symmetry. Despite their very different surface
appearances, they share an underlying mathematical commonality.
From the top, clockwise, they are Battered
Moonlight, a rhombic enneacontahedron, I'd
like to make one thing perfectly clear, and a tensegrity structure
made from coffee stirrers. The rhombic enneacontahedron at right
has a different coloring than my
take-apart sculpture.
