Intricate Wooden Sculptures by Joshua Abarbanel
Manchester born, California-based artist Joshua Abarbanel constructed an intricate wooden sculptural pieces made up of cut wooden forms that are meticulously laid out and layered.
"As an artist I explore forms and patterns, especially the colors, shapes, and compositions found in biological, botanical, and geological structures. I am interested in the relationship between the individual elements of structures and the larger forms of which they are a part."
His current works are on display at Art Share L.A. as part of the group show called Sticks & Stones through July 25.

Geometric Patterns Bananas by Dan Cretu
Romanian photographer and visual artist Dan Cretu (previously here) hand-carved bananas into geometric patterns.
"I like to think of myself as an illustrator trying new mediums for artistic expression. Here is my latest project, which focuses on bananas and graphic design."
"I carve different shapes & patterns by hand and paint them. Every single banana has a unique pattern, but all of them keep their traditional banana shape."

Geometric Human Figures by Antony Gormley
British sculptor Antony Gormley reconstructs the human form made of abstract, geometric shapes.
"My work has always explored the body as a place rather than an object."
"The Scottish enlightenment scientist Lord Kelvin once asked how space could be most efficiently bounded by an enclosing geometry. The answer was found in those most elusive and fugitive of things: bubbles and foams which form an intriguing geometry of tetrahedral nodes with elements combining at angles slightly less than 120 degrees. In recent years I have been experimenting with cell aggregates of nesting polyhedra in both solid and space-frame forms. The aim is to turn the space of the body into an open framework of tetrahedral, cubic, dodecahedral and more complex polygons. There was a breakthrough when I released these matrices from a bounding skin."

Food Cubes by Lernert & Sander
In 2014, Amsterdam-based conceptual design studio Lernert & Sander comissioned by Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant to create a photograph for a special documentary photography issue about food.
The Dutch artist duo created this wonderfull photograph of 98 different types of unprocessed foods cut into extremely precise 2.5 x 2.5 x 2.5 cm cubes perfectly-arranged aligned on a staggered grid, creating a tantalizing geometric display.
The photo is available as a limited edition C-print of 50 copies, printed on 40 x 50cm baryta paper and signed by the artists for about €500.

Relief by Yuko Nishimura
Japanese artist Yuko Nishimura transforms single sheets of handmade paper into contoured works of art in her series 'Relief'.
"Japanese people unconsciously experience the action of folding on a daily basis, and therefore encounter various folded forms. I think there must be a special meaning for Japanese people through this everyday practice, folding."
"A particular charm occurs in the simplicity with which the expression appears having never been touched by any tool."
"Only by folding one piece of paper an expressive masterpiece can be created. This is the Japanese way of folding. In order to link the past with future generations regarding the form of folding, I do not limit myself to the category of origami but consider the pursuit of any possibility of folding paper."
"To express the Japanese soul through form will continue to be passed down from generation to generation as a tangency between culture and art."
"Creating three-dimensional concrete forms by folding one piece of paper is traditional Japanese origami, and I use this essential ‘folding’ technique in my work. However I create large scale paper relief sculptures composed of narrow pleats that are made by repetitive creasing and folding, which result in accordion folds."
