VIRTUAL SCULPTURE IN INTERACTIVE 3D

DVD AVAILABLE INTERACTIVE DEMO 2007

This sculpture is the materialization of a hexahedron, five sides of which have been emptied out by the projection of the outline corresponding to the number four in my distant vision typeface (Reg. 1986). Given the appropriate measure between the strokes perpendicular to the ground to form 1.30 meter wide corridors so that two persons can walk through side by side, the dimensions of this cube turn out to be six meters, sixty centimetres wide. Within its slightly more than 287 cubic meters, it encloses the indescribable volumes that arise from the successive intersections of the voids (along the three dimensional axes) which arise from the profile that bounds the number on each of its sides.

The sculpture should be located so that the edge coinciding with the two vertical strokes of the number is facing south. The whole emerges from the sheet of water surrounding it and is reflected in a mirror image, the water also acting to diffuse the light falling on it, illuminating with greater uniformity the exterior faces of the sculpture.

Access to the interior is through the respective vertical strokes of the figures of the numerical sign represented made by crossing over the surface of the water by self-supporting footbridges, through each one of its faces.
