These pieces are based on our “glass cane” mathematical font that imagines each letter of the alphabet as an arrangement of small black cylinders within a larger clear cylinder that get pulled and twisted to make complex new designs for glass cane. The sculptures are made from multiple pieces of paper, each printed with the full cane alphabet from A-Z (twice), then folded along curved creases and twisted further into 3D pieces.
