Working in her studio in Sausalito, CA, sculptor Sophia Collier uses a combination of acrylic block and algebraic function (with a little help from a CNC router), to carve sculptures of wind. The clear, floating relief works look like freeze-frame slices of the water’s surface. She spends a great deal of time replicating the effects that both wind and light create on a large body of water using custom rendering software and sound recordings of the wind. Collier carefully mimics its movements and reactions with a series of digital “brushes” she has created, working to develop unique strings of information to carve out each piece. The sound waves move and fluctuate in the digital space just as they do in the physical realm—and the result is a crystallized portrait of the wind, giving the visual effect of sunlit water. She outlines her entire process here.

Resolute Ruins by Andy Vogt

Mining San Francisco’s dumpsters artist Andy Vogt salvages wood strips of plaster lath discarded during home renovation projects and re-assembles them into geometric wall drawings and structures. His works are re-crystallized skeletal incarnations of an obsoleted system that has been frozen in suspended animation.

Wyatt Kahn - Contender (2012) - Unpainted canvases stretched onto irregularly shaped frames

Artist’s statement: 

“I am trying to push sculpture to the limits of painting.”

[sfmoma]

“A sculpture is a piece of art that’s made by shaping or carving something, or by putting things together.” 

Sooo, this is adorable (and informative)!
