Trimer, Monomer, Dimer 1965

"Trimer, Monomer, Dimer" is a bronze sculpture by Ruth Vollmer, created in 1965. The sculpture is comprised of six rounded forms arranged in a line, with each piece connected to its neighbor by a small portion of its surface. The rounded forms have a hammered texture, suggesting the artist's direct hand in shaping the piece. The title of the work is likely a reference to the relationship between the individual forms, suggesting a playful exploration of geometric relationships. The work is a prime example of Vollmer's fascination with abstract forms and their potential for visual and intellectual engagement.
