Since I began exploring geometry through drawing, I was always drawn to the Fibonacci spiral. However, I was unsure how to recreate it using string without relying on a large number of nails proved difficult. Through experimenting with this piece and others, I discovered that the deliberate arrangement of straight lines can evoke the illusion of graceful, flowing curves
Here's a time-lapse video of me putting this piece together

The 64 Star Tetrahedron was one of the first geometric symbols I learned to draw. I thought drawing it was challenging having to get every line and intersection exactly right. Surprisingly, it wasn't as tough to bring it to life with the wood and string as I'd thought
I've made a video to show the process below 🦋 https://youtu.be/d4ZQMjKhxxA?si=jBs8sEo0tiGhEGM9
