For this project I wanted to look at the human form from an abstract view, taking away any previous experience or relation to the human body I wanted to create this new physical form relating more to extra terrestrials and the idea of life beyond earth.
What would they look like ?
how would they move ?
Enjoy
Perception is key. We may all be looking at the same exact thing but we're all seeing something different.
"If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear
to man as it is: infinite...."

UPDATE*** 6/29/13 THE WOLFPACK IS BACK! Thanks D for adding this to your substantial haul. Another well curated selection--I have to give you street credit for doing things the right way. Cheers.
The work is based on the perception of the cycle of life on planet earth and the consciousness of humans.
12 states of consciousness. Beginning with the number 12 and ending in human consciousness.
This work is complemented by audiovisual work called "life cycle" which is divided into 6 acts. ( I Perception of the Earth, II Life and behavior, III Religion and cult systems, IV Life in the universe, V Technology, VI war).
These works are made to lose money and raise awareness of people around us.

Folded from a single uncut square, this model reveals different symbols depending on your angle — English E, mathematical ∃ (“there exists”), Cyrillic ш (“sh”), Georgian ო (“o”).
Each viewer insists their view is correct, trapped in a deadlock of perception. Yet all emerge from the same source — the same square.
It’s a reflection on how meaning, identity, and language are shaped by perspective and limited knowledge.
Inspired by ideas from Advaita Vedanta, Buddhist śūnyatā, Spinoza’s monism, Berkeley’s idealism, and a touch of postmodern relativism (language games, signs/symbols) — suggesting that beneath all interpretations and creases lies a single uncut truth: the sheet itself. Hence the need for empathetic understanding and tolerance.
I didn’t expect it to go so deep — I was simply trying to fold a visual pun, like the 6 vs 9 meme. But it turned into my most layered model ever, blending origami with semiotics, philosophy, and linguistics. I've butchered the logical syntax for the sake of art though.
Designed and folded by me from a single uncut square of tracing paper.

Very happy with the result.
If this symbol has any other interpretation for you, please share! (Apart from English W or number 3)
Could be linguistic or anything else.
Hope you all like it too.
{Please note: my understanding of these concepts is naive at best — I’m just playing with ideas here!}
