1 “The Beauty of Knots” K7_7 K6_1 K3_1 K6_1
Granada 2003 “The Beauty of Knots” K7_7 K6_1 This is one of the URAP projects I am running again this semester: We try to turn mathematical knots into abstract sculptures. These are pictures from a previous instance of this URAP project. K3_1 K6_1

2 Florida 1999 Chinese Button Knot (Knot 940) Bronze, Dec Carlo Séquin cast & patina by Steve Reinmuth A sculpture that was first printed in ABS plastic on a FDM machine and then converted to bronze in a classical investment casting process modified to use a plastic original rather than wax. Done by Steve Reinmuth in his bronze foundry in Eugene, OR.

5 Granada 2003 “Pax Mundi” (Bronze, 2007) “Pax Mundi” was my first experience with building a large, permanent sculpture. It i9s located in the H&R Block headquarters in Kansas City. It would not have been possible without a well-orchestrated collaboration between these 3 individuals. And this same team was put to work on a more recent sculpture! Team effort: Brent Collins, Steve Reinmuth, Carlo Séquin
