American artist Carol Prusa works with acrylic globes and domes, illustrating incredibly detailed mathematical structures on a unique and subtly three-dimensional construct.
Carol introduces her work more succinctly than i can: “My constructed domes are provocative symbols that invoke the idea of the universe and physical objects that allude to real-life structures. In my “canopies,” I explore a number of mathematical models that physicists developed to explain our universe. The mathematics of my expressed geometries offer a spiritual force that organizes structures from the microsopic to the political. Here, geometry isn’t simply abstract but creates a real world, sustained by its own logic.”
The pieces are incredibly detailed and organic, all at once suggesting near-recognisable forms you might find in sub-marine life and allowing us glimpses into far more complex alien worlds. She is no stranger to peering into the abyss.
