“In this sculpture I continue the research on the artistic possibilities of some of the mathematical foundations used to define the shape of space, specifically I analyze various topological principles such as set theory, metric space and topological spaces. A topological space is a mathematical structure that allows the formal definition of concepts such as convergence, connectivity, continuity, neighborhood, using subsets of a given set.
This piece (as a topological postulate) is composed of a theorem and a proof of it, so I keep some of the elements that are used for its formulation such as letters, but I replace the other symbols by objects. The result contains all the balance and rigor that a mathematical foundation entails, enriched by objects related to everyday life.“ - Gabriel Rico
