Description

The Borromean rings are used as the border curves of aesthetically pleasing 2-manifolds, approximating minimal-area surfaces. Two- and three-level deep recursive configurations are then constructed and the border curves of the various levels are gracefully joined to obtain a single 2-manifold covering all the nested levels. The results are intricate, but highly symmetrical, abstract geometrical sculptures.
