To Catch the World is a temporary installation at Fisher Pavilion in Seattle Center, on display until January 2023.

To Catch the World explores the delicate balance between the determinate and the indeterminate. The inspiration is a 'Penrose tiling', a process for combining certain sets of shapes in a way that leaves no gaps between them. The pattern can be extended forever, and while there are similarities between different areas, it never actually repeats itself. That such a thing is possible, much less that it can be created by following a simple set of rules using a finite set of shapes, deserves examination. Emergent behavior of this kind is behind so many aspects of life -- including life itself! -- that the tiling becomes a microcosm of the world.
