Hands and Archimedean Solids, a Hand Drawn Book of Hands and Archimedean Solids
A handmade book of 8 x 11 inches pen and ink drawings. I made the drawings and prepared this book at the end of 2019 and early 2020. After the world shut down with Covid - I wrote my Covid experience in my diary and eventually in the margins of this hand made book in red ink. I also made additional marks with red ink in the margins and on top of the drawings.
I mailed this book to Sean Kelly, director of Sean Kelly gallery, at the end of April, 2020. Because I like it and I think they will represent me one day.
I made a downloadable pdf with all of the Archimedean Solids that you can print at home, cut and decorate your Christmas Tree with. Download print at home Hand Drawn Archimedean Solids.
Hands and Archimedean Solids pen and ink drawings
The Archimedean Solids represent the ideal world, human perfection, our thoughts. The Archimedean solids are a visual map of what philosophers, since the ancient times until now, have been trying to reason about. They represent certainty. The hands, on the other hand, represent us. We are soft, and most of the time, not entirely sure.
