Artist Statement:


    The subtle patterns found in the orientation of the over two thousand blue objects were produced algorithmically by placing the objects under the influence of a number of invisible “control” objects. Those objects falling outside of the influence of the control objects have a random orientation. The orientation of the objects is accentuated by the two-tone coloring.

    While all of the objects are based on the same basic geometry, the slight randomization of size and the use of 3D procedural textures give each the appearance of being unique. This pattern of similar-yet-unique detail is found throughout the natural world, and is the inspiration for much of the artist’s work.
