This work is inspired by architectural elements that are found in rising structures such as cathedrals and how geometric elements combine to create these forms. This is part of series where I am investigating the latter in respect to how geometries intersect and can create other geometries and forms. In this case two triangles are merged and create a circular element, line that encourages the feeling of the form rising. Here, there are two buttress like forms that are brought together to create a passage for some and a window for others. The relationship between these forms demonstrates a harmonious collaboration where the two become one. I want offer the viewer a moment of contemplation, discovery and self relating to the form. There is an ephemeral feel with this medium, form and choice of color.
