"I don’t know whether these carry emotions for mathematicians, but as an artist I project my own vision onto these mathematical, purely abstract forms. You know, we want to see things the way we want to- so this is the beginning of the art here, and we can shape how we want to see."
- Hiroshi Sugimoto
