Part 2 of 4

Here I split my module into it's component prisms (which are almost identical and therefore modules themselves). I then aligned them to form a square in plan, which I then repeated (you can see this in the first image). Beautiful wrinkled (if I do say so myself!) textures are created in this plane - it looks like waves or some kind of puckered skin. To give it more depth, I pulled some of the prisms out at varying depths (images 4 to 6 show this). The lightly gridded and fractured surface in the final image suggests ice floes. The deeper prisms below the ice-like surface look like they could be some kind of vertical transportation, waiting to slot back into the grid.

At the moment I am unsure how I might use these images. I like the way that they relate to the cold and harsh environment on Bruny Island (though there is no ice that I know of there!), and perhaps this is a pattern that I could use within my house as a structural framework or textured surface of some kind.
