The piece consists of hundreds, of identical wooden elements meticulously arranged to form an undulating, almost fabric-like surface. Each wooden component has a hexagonal cross-section and is open at both ends, allowing light to pass through and creating an airy, lace-like quality.

The wooden elements are tightly packed together in offset rows, with each row nestled into the spaces between the elements of the rows above and below it. This precise arrangement creates a dense, complex pattern that is both highly structured and organic in appearance.

The natural color variations in the wood, ranging from light honey tones to darker oranges and browns, add visual interest and depth to the monochromatic palette. These subtle color shifts catch the light differently across the surface, enhancing the sense of movement and dimensionality.

One of the most striking aspects is how the individual elements seem to flow and curve across the surface, creating undulating lines and pockets of negative space. This effect is achieved through the careful positioning and orientation of each hexagonal component. By slightly angling and offsetting the elements, the artist has created the illusion of a rippling, almost liquid surface.

The sheer scale of the piece is also noteworthy. The repetition of the wooden elements across such a large expanse creates an immersive, almost mesmerizing visual experience for the viewer. It invites closer inspection to appreciate the fine details and craftsmanship, while also demanding a step back to take in the overall composition and rhythm of the pattern.

In terms of process, this piece would have required an incredible amount of precision, patience, and planning to execute. Each wooden element would need to be carefully cut, sanded, and finished before being incorporated into the larger composition. The level of consistency in each component speaks to the artist’s skill and dedication to their craft.
