Faction_002 - Stencils

Stencils is a series of 500 unique generative artworks with the option to receive a corresponding physical multi-layered artwork. Each are made with a laser cutter directly from the artist’s studio. Stencils is repetition and motion, its expression is the result of oscillation and layered rotation. Four layers of varying colors, each with the same grid of oscillated open cells, are rotated 90 degrees on top of each other. With each rotation the layers form symmetry that is heightened by one to four solid cells on each layer. An ellipse within the grid counteracts the symmetry. The layers overlap and the colors, cells and ellipse merge into an asymmetrical balance with an unexpected expression. It is a work of architectural tectonics. It embodies the science and art of digital modeling, both in relation to method and artistic expression. It refers not only to the activity of modeling the work, but rather to the activity that raises the modeling to an art form.
