A time lapse video of the installation of the main large artwork "Sierpinski's Growth" in the new Engineering & Informatics Building at the Athlone Institute of Technology. It is introduced with some of the proposal images, and interspersed with still images. It also shows images of the small and medium sized sculptures in the 2 other atria. The artwork consists of 3 sculptures, 6 meters wide on the largest, 3m on the medium, and 1.5m on the smallest, constructed of precisely designed laser cut & folded stainless steel components. I have created three large space filling fractal sculptures for the Athlone Institute of Technology's new Department of Engineering and Informatics building. These sculptures are constructed using stainless steel pipes, so that the work can be built to a significant scale while keeping the final full weight of the artwork within the limits necessary for the supporting beams. The largest artwork is approximately 300 kilos. The design of the interlocking joints direct the visual appearance of the artwork away from being a simple mathematical exercise towards that of an engineered construct. The artworks are distributed in the three entrance foyers / atria. These are three-dimensional drawings, lines floating in air. Inspired by my temporary piece "Sierpinski's Growth" created for the National Botanic Gardens 2007 Sculpture in Context Exhibition, I was very excited by the opportunity to recreate this artwork in permanent materials. This ...
This time done with scala + processing + spde.
