Math Spirits

So I've been on this kick of art that's based on math or science of some sort lately and came across Xylor Jane's pieces. Jane's work draws on mathematical algorithms to create highly ordered minimalist grids. Each of her highly elaborate geometric works involves binary code and the color spectrum. While I'm sure technology of some sort could make these pieces easier to construct there's something really nice about the fact that Jane uses traditional means to create these magical paintings.

  1. Interesting...I always think of art/creativity as being free from the limitations of any sort of law. Thinking broadly and outside of the box vs. thinking in a linear way. But, Xylor Jane seems to be mashing the two.
