Food, cut into 2.5cm cubes. Surprisingly beautiful for a piece of modern art, but I suppose nature gets most of the credit here. The art of imposing an exactly-similar external form only highlights the beauty of the natural differences.

The contrast of the regular geometric form and the organic shapes of the material gives it a tension. I see lot of wood pieces like that when cutting out knots, etc. It is also fun how the pattern of shapes repeat in nature- the exact same ripple patterns repeat in a piece of wood, mother of pearl, an ancient bluff of sandstone, and in the clouds.

That is beautiful! Culinary Institute grads, eat your hearts out.
Nice pun there, Tex.
It amuses me that I assumed this was a post by Tex, and lo and behold, it's Grim's!
This is a great example of how rigorously following a set of rules can powerfully frame more seemingly subtle distinctions.
Would have been a great example of the power of well chosen sections, if I was still teaching studio.
I think your studio must have been awfully interesting.
