Have you ever looked at a pile of ordinary household objects and envisioned a masterpiece? Sculptor Zachary Abel does exactly that. Abel’s work transcends the mundane, transforming everyday items into captivating geometric sculptures that pay homage to the beauty of math and symmetry.
Abel’s artistic process is fueled by a deep fascination with mathematics and its underlying geometric principles. He doesn’t rely on exotic materials or complex techniques. Instead, he finds inspiration in the hidden patterns and symmetries embedded within ordinary objects. By meticulously arranging these objects, he breathes new life into them, transforming them into visually stunning sculptures that challenge our perception of the familiar.
I think about math constantly, and I see and look for math in everything around me. Geometry in particular fascinates me, and I delight in discovering hidden patterns even in the most mundane of objects. By transforming often-overlooked household items into elaborate, mathematical sculptures, I hope to share this sense of excitement, curiosity, and beauty that a mathematical outlook has instilled in me. Maybe I’ll even be able to learn and teach some math along the way.
