Baum
-
Baum is a stack of bangles made by layering coloured ceramic resin onto a rotating spit. The process, that takes hours of labour to complete, resembles the way Baumkuchen (the German Tree Cake) is made and creates a tree like structure.
The trunk made from the process is then cut into slices and polished to become bangles. All the trunks are unique in colour and size, and each bangle has varying thickness.
The bangles are cross sections of the trunk that expose the intricate pattern of growth developed during the making.
This is a part of an ongoing experiment in defining the function of an object with a void. With Baum, the object function is defined by the size of the core.
