About Complexity 3

My edition sculpture Boomerang was the result of a systematic study using patterns created by the swept-back spoke design. I’ve been experimenting with this type of pattern for years but never systematically. In my retirement I decided to take the time to do a more detailed study. In this phase of the study I varied the number of bends in the spoke; Complexity 1 has one bend followed by Complexity 2 with two bends and 3 bends in Complexity 3. My normal working method of studying computer animations was not definitive so I decided to make all three and compare them side by side. The time to do this is another luxury of retirement. Each sculpture had it’s own qualities and I liked them all. In the end we chose Complexity 1 to become Boomerang.  But…….

Complexity 2 and 3 are both fascinating sculptures so I’ve decided to sell them as one-of-a-kind sculptures. In the past I would have hung on to them for future editions but there are too many new ideas to try and not enough time to do it all.
