Psi, a Geometrica Style latticework piece, was formed by truncating a solid white porcelain cube into a cuboctahedron (14 faces). The cuboctahedron was then truncated to form the shape shown (26 faces). This truncated cuboctahedron was sculpted using three wood drills of varying size, hand turned to remove the interior of the solid and to form holes in the interiors of each separate face. The faces are marked by their flatness and sharp edges.
