THE PATTERN: Designing a formal system in 2D

This project started with a scan of an apple. The bottom part of the apple is extracted to create a pattern through repetition, and elongation. This repetition created an interesting pattern, which is then further developed into a more complex drawing. During the process of the two-dimensional development, the pattern starts to take on the appearance of a vertebrate in terms of the repetition of single elements and the curvatures. The two final patterns are then used as the inspiration and base of the object in three-dimensions. The three-dimensional work starts with line extraction from the initial drawings and complex drawings, in terms of curvature for the single repeated elements and the curvature of the overall structure. The lines are manipulated to created have different amplitude to provide a three-dimensional quality. This procedure, in the end, produced a skeletal object.
