Undulating Base Surface and Manipulations 

Combination Base Surface and Manipulations 

A series of base surfaces are manipulated through the distortion of interior control curves. As the curves are split apart, "scars" are created. These scars are result in either a positive or negative local curvature, separate from the curvature of the surface they are derived from. the relationship between these curves changes through rotation of the curves control points about various central axes. The result in an intensification of the curvature in certain areas, while other areas show a decrease in the intensity of the curvature.
