The Natural Occurrence Series renders the impossible through encapsulating the beauty that exists above and apart from the material world.

Shine investigates the reflective properties of a metallic object; in this case the subject was a Victorian candelabra. The reference information was generated through documenting the reflection by using raw data via a planar 3D scanner. When scanning a metallic object the laser beam is unable to distinguish between the surface and the reflection. The spikes represent the intensity of the reflection

Featured within the Art + Space exhibition at the Herman Miller National Design Center, Washington DC.
