The algorithm that was built for Getijde (Dutch for 'Tide') was meticulously designed. It's the result of spending most of the year cooped up inside four walls with a strong desire to escape. Countless hours were spent perfecting details to guarantee that each mint will be of high enough quality to be exhibited on screens and in print.

GRAVITY 12 is an exploration of the connection between math, art and nature. A network of nodes creates a gravitational field through which energy flows.

Spiromorphs are procedural roulette figures that investigate aesthetic relationships between form, symmetry and rotary motion. Variations are plotted using chained circles that overlay periodic continuous curves on an empty universe. The dynamic engine generates emergent morphologies of different colors and types while producing irregular yet harmonic forms. Charity: 5% of sales will be donated to National Alzheimer’s Foundation, a nonprofit organization helping families who suffer from neurological diseases.

ÂPEX ~ is a generative landscape art project responding to the conditions of the Anthropocene, where the lines between what is possible and what is only imagined are constantly shifting.  Simplified circles give way to hyperreal spaces. It is unclear if at any point they resemble a landscape that one could actually inhabit.

At what point do abstract shapes start to resemble believable environments? Each viewer may experience this work differently, depending on where they draw the line between realism and abstraction, natural form, reality and fantasy.

While landscape art is traditionally understood to represent natural forms, it has become increasingly difficult to distinguish between the natural and manufactured. When the code runs its course and a static picture emerges, a thin barrier seems to be crossed.

The work tests out the limits between reality and hyperrealism, between abstraction and surrealism, blurring distinctions between them.

Beachy dreamscape vibes. 50% of the minting sales proceeds for Stipple Sunsets were directly sent to GiveDirectly, a non-profit that sends money directly to the worlds poorest and most in need–50% of subsequent artist royalties will be be donated to charities in the Rocky Mountain region.
