The Project
While it seemed that most people around them in the Bay Area were moving toward more digital pursuits, Yelena and Serge felt compelled to switch gears from their tech jobs to make real world objects.
Hoping to capture some of the wonder and curiosity that sparked their love of geometric patterns and art, Yelena and Serge began to study everything from ancient Islamic tiles to the patterns created by particle physicists when modeling the unified field theory.
The constant theme that arose was that the appearance of beauty within naturally occurring harmonic relationships and patterns in the natural world.
The work thrives at art and music festivals, galleries, as interior design pieces, in urban environments, or as landscape elements.
The Stats
Each of the small pieces are 6+ feet tall and weigh over 600 lbs. They are made of steel and dissemble to flat-pack and travel easily. They operate intelligent LED lighting and have also contained fire.
Deep Thought, the largest sculpture, is 14 feet tall, 16 feet across, and weighs over 2500 lbs.
