Films — the sculptures turning

Each work, rendered as a slow 360° turnaround — five of the nineteen exist in steel, the others have not been built. Click a frame to play. Below each: the work's name and its mathematical identity — the Stanggassinger cluster or the catalogued knot the centerline reduces to. 15 films.

These are renders. Five of the nineteen works exist as hand-welded stainless steel — Trainstation, Number 5, XYZ, Double 3 and Celtic Trefoil; the others are designs that have not been built.
