Digital Smoke Sculptures
for Frank Stella

Michael O'Rourke, 1990 - 1992

Between 1990 and 1992 I designed and digitally modeled a series of sculptures for Frank Stella. Below are digital renderings I produced of six of these sculptures. (I modeled a total of 11 sculptures in all.) Each rendering shows six views of the same three-dimensinal sculpture. From these digital forms, I first produced both small-scale physical sculptures using stereolithography and then construction-drawing graphics to permit fabrication at large scales.
