Signetron - 2019

A balance of mass and space that takes the observer through cycles of thought as the visual cortex solves the image.

Signe - 2018

A naturally occurring shape, Signe leads the viewer through cycles of memory as the visual cortex works to resolve the image. Seven intersections act to connect different points in time, allowing the viewer to experience past, present and future at once.
