Aesthetic Sculpture

Welcome to Aesthetica Sculptura...an art piece balanced between the creator and viewer.  In the book, The Botany of Desire, the tulip uses humans’ desire for beauty to propagate and survive.  This artwork mimics this evolutionary technique to not only survive, but to seek what it means to be beautiful in a world of different opinions.

This website includes a 3D interface that will allow you to play with many elements of the sculpture.  As more people submit their own version, the website will calculate the "best" version.  As more users gravitate to more popular design structures, it becomes more difficult for other less popular structures to influence the final design. 

At the conclusion of the to be determined evolutionary timeline, the piece will be 3D printed to replicate the exact state of the art.

The piece you see below is the current evolutionary state of Aesthetica Sculptura:
