This model is inspired by the Muqarnas (for Stalactite Vault), which is a key component in Arabic Architecture. The adornments take shape through the repetition and interlacing of patterns over different levels and planes. The outcome of this project was exhibited through shows in galleries and as a permanent public art installation. Through the process of experimenting, I have investigated working with materials with a focus on metal and different alloys, while paying special attention to their characteristics and properties. My primary artistic focus was to create a pattern of solid elements through the choice of materials, surface treatment, and the composition of repetitive patterns; and how the numerous attempts to produce a specific design become a pattern of objects.engText
