My artwork explores the untapped potential of mathematics, digital mediums, and their impact on art ownership in a digital age.

The original artwork was created by inputting a sequence of mathematical steps into computer software, which was then selectively altered to create a dynamic abstraction.

The original image’s raw computer data has been displayed to demonstrate the sheer volume of information that modern images contain. The paper functions as a sculptural form, questioning how we represent non-traditional forms of art.

Lastly, I developed a website and interactive iPad display to invite the viewer to be a collaborative maker of the artwork.
