The sacred geometry
About
Inspired by the Muqarnas, an elevated 2D pattern to 3-dimensional geometries. The Muqarnas, in Arabic for stalactite vault, is a type of element employed in architecture. It occurred and flourished between the 11th – 17th centuries.

"Repetition is a positive phenomenon, by observing different patterns; we can better realize our universe"
Inspiration
In Mother Nature creations, and in Man-made formations;
patterns are a harmonic rhythm that modulates form and space.
From a body perspective; it generates feelings of safety and eternity in the observer.
Ornamental patterns and geometries plays a major role traditionally in the construction of everyday life. The reflection they add on the surroundings with different elements from Nature, results on an interaction with our perception in an abstract form of beauty combined with senses of spirituality and symbolism.

Through this installation, I wanted to communicate with my fellow students, and the public attending the library; the importance of time in connection to the concept of success in the daily tasks. The number of twenty-four elements corresponding to the hours per day. The elements were placed in two parallel lines that are extended from the floor level to the top.
The installation is located on the western side of the Dals långed bibliotek (library building), within the premises of the University of Gothenburg and Stenebyskolan.
Address: Hemslöjdsvägen, 66695 Dals Långed, Sweden
