suckerPUNCH: Describe your project.
Will PYATT: The project explores a repeated geometries ability to express gradient in texture between a fluid soft-surface, and a polygonized hard-surface; wherein recognizable figural forms exist in contrast with a fluid and continuous surface. Simultaneously a secondary system operates according to the same logic; however rather than forming geometry, volume, & space these components seek to veil the existing geometries in a permeable sharp-screen that seeks to mask the nature of the interior spaces.
sP: What or who influenced this project?
WP: Machined components, engine sections, and other fast things.
sP: What were you reading/listening to/watching while developing this project?
WP: Listening to sci-fi soundtracks, Rick Ross, and Frank Sinatra.
sP: Whose work is currently on your radar?
WP: N/A.

you can’t “polygonize” a surface, idiot, that’s not even a word. you can “facet” a surface - try that.

yes, you can polygonize a surface. It is ok.
As for the snowflake screen canopy, it is very interesting how it comes down the wall and aggregates there.
