Individual work, a gift to friend

This project is an extension of Computed Transparency, where I explore the fusion of parametric modeling with tangible materials. I experimented with the application of graph theory algorithms from computer science to the design and fabrication of decorative objects. Specifically, I transformed the ‘minimum spanning tree’ algorithm into a tangible tree form that artistically erodes the shape of a cube. The crafted negative spaces are dynamic, evolving from a unified space on one side to a fragmented composition on the other. Additionally, I harnessed the unique properties of layered acrylic sheets, which reflect and transmit light, to create captivating visual effects within these hollow spaces.
