Apps used: Apple on-board camera, Decim8, Snapseed, Glaze, Over, Superimpose

This piece is from a set of recent geometric abstract images. Giving credit where it is due, I was greatly influenced by the remarkably rhythmic black and white Rotring work of Carrie Meijer.

I set out from a blank white panel to create a deliberately noisy piece, full of urban busyness and movement that reflects the anonymous character of public space. I echoed the formalistic complexity in Carrie’s work with my own structural layering and color methods.

My upper grid is built from multiple layers of letters and characters from the “Pixel” block font found in the Over app. Through a series of masking steps I trimmed and shaped the letters into a kind of skeletal scatter pattern, then selectively applied a number of thin irregular white line masks over the composition. The randomly placed color blocks added a sense of organic humanity interacting with the space.

The lower grid is made from a photo of my house apped through Decim8, and a black block with random bits of color run through Glaze. Both grids were then combined in Superimpose.
