Here is the construction of the original Culica Logo. It is being made in Blender, an open source 3D graphics and animation program. Each "cube" is a 3D model of a Culica, shown below

Here is the original Culica logo made in Blender (see above) made of coloured Culica shapes. It was fun but not easy enough to read. It's arty though.

Here we have Culica art that was originally created for games instructions. This was made in Blender and is the same model as used in the original logo, see graphics further up. More graphics are below.

Diagonal lines of pegs going the other way. Interestingly that you cannot rotate  a Culica with pegs in it like this to re-create the graphic above this one. You actually have to move the pegs.

James, the Culica inventor and artist, created the graphics, cartoons and photographs (apart from this one!) in this page.

At Culica we are keen to promote art in schools and pretty much everywhere, so do get in touch if you have some projects in mind! Hopefully this page might give you some ideas for using Culica to make art. Or you can play games on it! And when you play the games, you will often see artistic sides of the Culica, In particular, the solutions to many of the puzzles are artistic.
