The furors of geological forces inside the earth’s crust create new organic and geometric forms and intricate spaces. Geometrical relicts of crystal symmetry emerge; volcanic eruption, weathering and fragmenting transform the rocks and minerals into new structures and mysterious landscapes; vivid colours arise from layers of oxidations and erosion.
These fragmentations and emerging of entangled spaces and structures are an inspiration.
