OBLIQUE #41

Description

“OBLIQUE” is an art piece from my "FLUX" series that explores the theme of destroying and constructing an image simultaneously. Through diagonal (oblique) manipulation of pixels, multiple unrelated layers are integrated to form a unique composition. The work began with an exploration of creation of curving lines with noise and eventually, a repetitive vortex-like circle shape emerged, reminiscent of Leonardo da Vinci's water flow and flood drawings or the rhythmic drawings of Sy Twombly. I used some of the patterns I discovered as the basic elements of this work. (It was a long process, but in the end I decided that the first parameters I found were superior. I also started a derivative work, “fl00d”, on the theme of flooding). In addition to these organic curves, flow fields and rect() and circle() are placed as elements. Although they are unrelated layers in terms of processing, they are integrated by diagonal (oblique) pixel operations and transformed into a different kind of shape. In this work, I was also conscious of including the process of creation itself as a variation of the work, and of leaving it as a code. With the evolution and spread of AI, it is necessary to reevaluate the value of creating without understanding and forgetting after understanding, and I felt that these processes were important elements of the works of human. The ability to reflect these elements in a work of code art is one of the interesting aspects of Generative Art with p5js. The title "OBLIQUE" takes inspiration from the "The Function of the Oblique" of architecture discussed by Paul Virilio, a theorist of the information society, and artchitect Claude Parent. （I don't know the details of that at this time, so this is just inspiration from those words.） The term “Oblique” also refers to muscle tissue. Muscle tissue can be said to be a representative example of being strengthened by damage. It is possible to get a 5760 x 3240 px png file by right click save.
