About this artwork
This kinetic, mixed-media piece reveals the radiant beauty hidden in white light. The vibrant colors are an optical illusion; the background is strictly black and white, and the 3D elements are transparent.
The Wave Field: A dense line drawing forms a tight vortex in the top-left, mimicking waves rippling outward. As they move across the canvas, they curve dynamically before breaking down into a chaotic scribble in the bottom-right, contrasting… order with entropy.
The Quantum Particles: A grid of clear, cone-shaped resin structures acts as lenses, refracting the lines beneath into tight, concentric circles.
The magic is activated by viewer motion. The cones contain a hidden dichroic material that catches the light, shimmering with shifting rainbows. As your perspective shifts, the refracted lines fluidly morph and swirl. This creates a powerful kinetic illusion, making static waves appear to pulsate through the particles—mirroring the shifting nature of the quantum realm.
