Portfolio Category: Cosmology

Mapping the symbolic universe through words and geometry: These pieces are based on the medieval conception of a geocentric universe, where the physical and metaphysical worlds flowed into each other, and astronomy was intertwined with astrology, alchemy and theology. A general picture of this world model is drawn through the genesis of eight of these pieces in my monograph Cosmographia.
