Here, mathematics becomes a language. It tells a particular tenderness for a date of birth or marriage, a number dear to you, a name, a word, an intention, a wish close to your heart.
An idea as old as it is poetic: in Pompeii, almost 2,000 years ago, someone wrote on a wall “I love her whose number is 545”. Each letter was worth a number. Here too, the letters of your phrase add up, in the way of the Greeks and the Hebrews. Builders even hid the date of their monuments in them:
A chronogram of the soul, for those we love.
Write it, and your numbers take their place in the very shape of the zome: its silhouette, its diamonds, its angles. Choose its size and the way it will live in your space. When the shape speaks to you, write to me: it reaches me with all its measurements.
Two ways to create your zome
The shape does not change: only the zome grows or shrinks on the table, at its real size. From the smallest I can make for this shape to the largest I ship (42 cm high standing, 45 cm hanging, 40 cm wide).
Dreaming of a larger zome? It can be made: you will simply need to collect it from the workshop, as beyond these measurements I cannot ship it.
Your zome can stay clear or dress itself in colour.
Does this geometry feel like you? Write to me for a quote, or to think together about the colours of your zome. I will be glad to answer.
