Two (2010) Digital Arts by Richard Mangold

Art On The Green founder Richard Mangold trained at Kingston and Reading Colleges of Art.
Current projects include his Plage Collection, the study of horizons where sea meets sky.

Recently I have been occupied with what I call The Mangold Polytope. It’s the merger of three shapes within a five sided shape. The Polytope lends itself aesthetically, and technically near perfect.

For the viewer; intuitive notions of shape, inspiring cognitive ability, development of spatial awareness, hand to eye Co ordination, mechanical reasoning, perspective; thought processing.

To be used in education, helping a developing mind, the process of reasoning; learning through attachment to The Mangold Polytope, ie. Colour, primary’s and the mixing of secondary colours.

Cognative, lending itself relative to the shape it represents as The Polytope rotates, it seemingly changes from Square to Circle ⭕️ and then to Triangle.

This understood, The Mangold Polytope via means of rotation, The Polytope forms all three shapes; affectively merged. Both sophisticated and complex in form, but simple and understandable in design.
