This is part of my typography work; an Helvetica B cut out using the laser cutter in the workshop. A thin plywood was used which has a good colour and showed up the scorch mark left by the laser. I chose a B due to it having both curves and straights which would give a good image when photographed. It can be arranged in so many different ways to show the 3d effect using the black edges to exaggerate the positioning.
It is a piece of work I am very proud of and yet the work was minimal due to the laser but it was carefully planned, measured and the outcome was better than I could have predicted. It is also very tactile; wood has so many qualities that I like.
