Modules stacked along a single axis — the growth rule applied in one direction.
A short run of solids snapped face to face, each rotated against the last.
Branching in more than one direction until the form closes on itself.
Bird of prey, ornamented hound and mountains, layered in grey and gold over a printed field.
Seven cypress panels arranged as a cross beside a circuit-cut tree, flame and cloud in red.
Black bird between two red cloud stamps; below, a hound in blue and a cypress on a blue ground.
Soboof is the studio behind Mirbreak — mirrored modular sculptures built from 3D-printed geometric bodies and hand-cut mirror tile.
The work sits at the intersection of sacred architecture, algorithmic geometry, and craft. A single modular logic — tetrahedron, pyramid, dodecahedron — is repeated, varied, and pushed until it becomes organic: a bird, a fox, a relic.
Surfaces are hand-finished in the Ayeneh-Kari tradition — a centuries-old Persian technique of mirror inlay used in palaces and shrines. Each triangular shard captures a fragment of reality, so the piece changes with every viewer.
Soboof also runs workshops on modular thinking and mirror craft, and takes commissions for one-of-a-kind pieces and interior installations.
A hands-on session on Ayeneh-Kari: cut mirror, mount it to a modular body, leave with a sculpture you built. Small groups, in-studio.
Short writing on geometry, growth, mirror craft, and the philosophy of modular form. New entries when something is worth saying.
Commissions, gallery enquiries, press, and workshop bookings. If the brief is honest and the geometry is interesting, you'll hear back within a week.
