Curves and edges expressing geometric simplicity in a desk sculpture that synthesizes art and science.
We believe that via art and science, human sensibility and intelligence have made sense of the universe and its knowledge, which is how we know that the objects around us are governed by rules greater than ordinary perception.
The Sphericon family is a group of Paradoxical Solids —three-dimensional figures with geometrical characteristics that seem self-contradictory— constructed by cutting a solid of revolution in half and rejoining it at a 90º turn.
It was only recently that the Sphericon's form was uncovered. For example, the fact that its center of gravity always remains the same height above the floor on which it rolls and the unexpected and entertaining path it creates while moving from side to side while touching the floor with all of its surface were both marveled at by the Englishman Colin J. Roberts, who was one of its first researchers.
The Hexasphericon has one continuous surface and two discontinuous edges and is made up of a solid revolution from a hexagon.
