origamiPermutations

since 2014

The geometries of these reliefs are vocabulary and their random permutation is syntax. Following this formal language an unlimited number of variations can be obtained, where each relief is just a sample of the infinite plane of possibilities.

mosaic bw

since 2013

The elementary vocabulary of these kinetic mosaics and their architectural characteristics position them within the tradition of Art Concrete, whereas their programmed logics add infinite variation-evolution.

framework notations

2008

These notations are formal, geometric compositions that define the movement of the eponymous kinetic installation 'framework f5x5x5'. As such, they invert the principle of drawing movement in time with the visual abstract language of painting.

808

2016

The mechanical motion of these custom-tailored displays creates a clapping sound. Their generative rhythm becomes visible due to the shifting white squares recalling the legendary drum machine 808 with its programmable drum patterns.

origamis_regularPattern

since 2013

This series combines the tessellation of regular geometries with combinatorial logic - their folding and unfolding both completed with colors. Based on scripts, the emerging patterns combine the shape logic with chance.

mosaic rgb

2013

The play on primary colors and the geometric constellations give the artwork a 'neo-plasticist' character, whereas its programmed logic combines serendipity with simplicity, and order with randomness.

bw notations

These printouts notate the oscillations of the installation 'binaryWave'. Their motion patterns act as a compositional tool as an overall conceptual image.
