Patrice JEENER
Copper engraver
Patrice discovered the universe of mathematical curves while studying at Janson de Sailly. After graduating from the Fine Art University in Paris, he started his carreer exploring figurative world and landscape printinting.
While visiting the Palais de la Decouverte in Paris, he discovered models of minimal surfaces . He set himself to study surfaces whether algebraiques or minimal and render them in prints . Following are two minimal surface prints and two extensions of the original Klein bottle.
(Jean-François Colonna made a computer simulation some of Patrcice' works.)

One can notice the Jeener extensions relate to the work ofMoebius work. Here is an example of Moebius strip found in vol. 2 of his work, p.520
