Interconnecting blocks have never been this intriguing.

Overview

Modelling The Now looks like it must've been fun to make, particularly if interconnecting blocks have ever been your kind of thing. And, if it's as enjoyable to look at as it was to build, then your next trip to Milani Gallery is going to prove thoroughly intriguing.

For five years, artist Nigel Lendon worked with a series of objects to fashion a range of different geometric models. The end result is on display until October 29; however it's more than just a series of pieces you probably think you could make. (Yes, we know that's what you're pondering.)

How each one comes together as an individual creation — and how it fits in with the works around it — is the contemplative fodder that could fill many an afternoon. And, that's just the outcome you want when you head to an exhibition.
