Twisted Ratios

A vertical totem of three mirror-polished stainless-steel volumes—cube-like blocks that have been torqued and pressed as if by a liquid lens. Each segment bends reflections in a different register, so the column reads as a stack of shifting ratios rather than fixed geometry

Artist Statement

Twisted Ratios investigates what happens to Euclidean certainty when perception becomes fluid. The work begins with the most rational of solids—a cube—and subjects it to controlled deformations that keep the mass legible while breaking its symmetry. Reflections are the fourth material here: faces shear, horizons buckle, and the room divides into mirrored strata that refuse a single viewpoint. The piece treats proportion as a living variable, a dialogue between form, light, and the moving observer.

1/1 Modern Exhibition

Install free-standing with 360° access; give at least 1 m clearance on all sides so the stacked offsets read cleanly. Use high-CRI, even lighting at 3000–4000 K; a soft key from 30–45° reveals the torsion without producing specular hotspots. Keep nearby colors restrained to let the sculpture “borrow” the environment through reflection. Anchor to floor or concealed plinth for stability and protect with low-profile stanchions.
