Bangert Hair Spirals #23

Description

This piece is an homage to the work of Collette and Charles Bangert, specifically their piece "Structure Study II: Yellow, Red, Brown, Black" (1977)**. The underlying algorithm for this piece is based on my earlier work "Scorpion Spin" (1970s), which was created on a plotter. At the time, plotters could only draw in black and white, so I used an overdrawing technique to create the appearance of tone. The visual elements of this piece are made up of randomly placed algorithmically drawn spirals or curls, which represent locks of hair. The number of turns, location, and rotation of each curl are all randomly determined. The total number of curls is arbitrary, but the color percentages of the curls will always be the same: 2% red, 5% blond, 11% brown or auburn, and 82% black or dark brown. The Bangert influence can be seen in the overall look and feel of the work, as well as the wobbliness of the lines that draw the spirals. The spirals are reminiscent of the human hair that inspired them, and the wobbly lines add a sense of movement and energy to the piece. ** https://www.drbillkolomyjec.com/events-and-media/art-in-art-out/structure-study-2 Please visit www.drbillkolomyjec.com (c)2023 Dr. Bill Kolomyjec.
