Ethan Conlon: Serial Slicing
Created in Rhino, these serial sliced forms were used to explore
symmetry and negative space in a 3D modeled form. The first of these
sculptures was inspired by the shape of seed pods and fruit, exploring the abilities
of digital forms to replicate organic forms.
Bolting the sliced horizontal sections together allowed me to
twist the shape once the sections were assembled
This initial exploration of serial sliced form led to the
development of a second form, designed to be held together with steel wire.
Wire was chosen for the flexibility that it would lend the form, as well
as the tension that it could supply in order to hold the sculpture together.
After some experimentation with the physical sculpture, the form was
further manipulated from its digital shape to create a dramatic archway.
