Artist Statement

Mathematical Art as a Creative System

My mathematical art is driven by two core ambitions:

1. To create geometric and topological structures of both aesthetic and mathematical interest.
   
   

2. To develop a system that optimizes creative diversity, efficiency, and productivity in the production of mathematics and art.
   
   

From Paper to 3D Printing: A Journey of Materials and Ideas

Over the past 37 years, my artistic journey has evolved alongside the materials I use. I began with handmade paper sculptures, transitioned to wooden models made with industrial woodworking tools, and now design 3D-printed mathematical sculptures and models using STEAM CAD, Great Stella, and Bambu Studio software as can be seen on this site. This progression reflects my ongoing fascination with symmetry, harmony, and order—qualities that offer me solace in a chaotic world.

Color Theory

In my graphic designs, models, and sculptures, my palette oscillates between the rich chromatic harmonies of Renaissance masters like Michelangelo and Raphael, and the soft, muted tones of Nantucket pastels. This balance of intensity and tranquility evokes both mathematical precision and artistic emotion.

Influences and Inspirations

My work is deeply influenced by mathematicians, scientists, and artists whose contributions resonate with my own creative themes. These include:

• Mathematicians: Hermann Brunn, August Möbius, Felix Klein, B.M. Stewart
  
  

• Scientists: astronomer Johannes Kepler, chemist Alan Holden
  
  

• Artists: M.C. Escher, Robert Fathauer, Henry Segerman, George Hart, Bathsheba Grossman, Rinus Roelofs, Leonardo da Vinci
