Fractal Cube

2023 | Kinetic Sculpture

Polycarbonate sheets, SS rivets and rings, Digitally designed transparent stickers.

This cube consists of 6 identical square faces. Each transparent face has 2 layers with checkered square grids. As the sculpture expands and contracts, a square animation called a moire pattern is revealed through the rotation. Both the structure and the optical illusion have a period of 90 degrees. Hence it is a self-consistent, synchronous, and self-similar motion of just squares!
