Featured Work: Escaping Flatland
Escaping Flatland is a large stainless steel sculpture, consisting of two units, 12 feet high and covering an area approximately 15 x 30 feet. The total weight (entirely stainless steel) is 8,400 pounds. Each unit consists of four plates, 2.5″ thick. Escaping Flatland is one of a series of sculptures by Edward Tufte, based on ideas in his books on information architecture. Escaping Flatland reacts wonderfully to changes in time of day, the season, and the surrounding landscape. As a consequence, the work always appears fresh and new and, at the same time, part of the natural world.
