My B-Tech proposal started with sacred geometry and the pieces I created in 3rd year. I thought I was looking at sacred geometric patterns but I realised I had looked more at naturally forming geometric patterns, like the spirals of shells.
These patterns, forms and ratios become sacred because we attribute religious and sacred meaning to it. I feel that the essence of sacred geometry has been dulled in a sense, in becoming a mainstream idea people appreciate it for the surface value of the patterns rather that deeper meanings and information it holds.
I would like to use these same patterns and ratios to design pieces with a sense of balance, a reflection of what I hope to feel in this world.
