Star Magic
$200.00
This four-layer birch piece is a meditation on aperiodic tiling and traditional Islamic star geometry. It’s a smaller version of “Wooden Magic”, a one of a kind piece made for President Obama’s visit to our shop.
It’s a twelve-sided symmetry, expressed in an aperiodic tiling, layered with a sub-grid and a traditional Islamic star knotwork. From different angles it can appear both airy and also complex.
It is beautiful with light through it, recommended to hang in a window, or against a brightly colored wall.
Approximately 11 inches wide, held together with 4 tiny stainless steel bolts.
My favorite layered piece so far!
Naked Geometry is art and jewelry inspired by mathematics and nature. All of our woodwork is created in Pittsburgh community maker-spaces from sustainable materials, using a combination of laser cutting and traditional craft. The hardwood we use is either reclaimed, dead-fall, or ethically sourced. The plywood we use is LEED, F.S.C.-certified or better. Our findings and chains are nickel-free. Our cords are waxed cotton. All geometric art and design is created in-house by a small team of eccentrics.
