Three individual forms are derived from a singular, warped rhombic dodecahedron prism—tilted as if emerging from or being subsumed by the ground. Each form is oriented to establish alignments between a geometric division of space and the sun’s movement across the year, relative to the central axis of the underlying geometry. These alignments correspond to the horizonal extremities at sunrise and sunset, and are echoed in the optical clockwork generated as the sun’s rays project through the sculptures—shifting with the hours of the day and the turning of the seasons. Optical coatings, applied via magnetron sputtering, create a dynamic interplay of coloured planes, leaving clear those individual glass panes where the forms would have intersected in the original rhombic prism—preserving traces of its latent wholeness within each sculptural fragment.
