𝘚𝘶𝘣𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘧𝘵 𝘐𝘯 𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘩𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘴 is a series of paintings created with a robotic pen plotter. The robot follows instructions produced by a generative algorithm that creates a unique output each time it runs. Multiple sine wave oscillation functions, each with differing periods and amplitudes, combine to alter the size and orientation of hundreds of polygons to create a layered organic form.
While working on this series, I thought about all of the hidden topologies that shape our lives; trying to put form to the formless. The curvature of a friendship, the boundaries of desire, the distance between aspirations.
A quick peak behind the scenes! To produce this series, I created 128 iterations of the program and selected 8 for plotting. Here's what they all look like.
I find the curatorial aspect of generative art to be one of the most enjoyable. Selecting iterations that produce an interesting composition is where I feel the human element is most clearly expressed in this art form.
Recently, I got a beautiful bouquet of flowers. They were the basis of this artwork. If you look closely, you can still see them.
