Creative coder, generative artist, dither enthusiast

In this series of artworks titled 'Breaking Point’, I explore the expressive potential of dithering beyond its conventional role, elevating the algorithm itself to become the essence of the artwork. I leverage deliberate and serendipitous modifications to the dithering matrix to create intricate black and white patterns when applied to gradients and simple geometric shapes.

Urban Planning continues the exploration of abstract and recursively generated architectural systems that I started with the Recursive Architecture series. It plays on my own fascination with scale models and bird's-eye views, as well as technical drawings.

The number of parameters that can be tweaked was purposefully kept to a minimum. Even the best planners cannot (and maybe should not try to) account for everything.

During the late stages of the creative process, I read Jane Jacobs's 1958 essay 'Downtown is for People' and it played an important role in how I decided to frame this work. The last words, especially, stuck with me: 'Designing a dream city is easy; rebuilding a living one takes imagination.'
