THE ITERATION /2012/
The collection is inspired by the
Fractal
Cosmology theory which maintains the structure of the universe to be of the fractal
nature and the universe itself to be infinite in any direction.
A fractal is a kind of geometric shape which
can de divided into parts, each at least
approximately a reduced-size semblance
of the whole, or a self-similar shape.
According to the theory, there is
a hierarchical organization (or nesting)
of matter - from the elementary particles
to the clusters off galaxies, with three main
levels: atomic, astral and galactic.
So the central issue of Fractal Cosmology
is that the universe may consist of infinite
number of levels which are similar to each
other but different in scale - thereby there
could be no "smallest" nor "largest" scales -
the whole observable universe can be enclosed
inside a molecule of some larger-scale
universe and at the same time an atom
may contain another world with its own galaxies,
stars and inhabited planets...
Models of the collection represent a
variety of matter levels in the universe.
All pieces' patterns are composed of the
one repeating basic element - the square
divided by diagonals - an elementary particle,
but each model has a different scale and
number of particles involved.
