If you’re passionate about the intersection of technology and art, I highly recommend taking a moment to read this:
I have a fascination with typography, type design, language, and art. For some time now, I have been working on different ways to share how beautiful and magical letters, words, sentences, and paragraphs can be when we look at them right. ‘Portraits’ is a recent and ongoing(!) project that sits somewhere between type design, abstract art, and furniture. In short, it is a collection of handcrafted Venetian glass mirrors made from text. Each character of a piece of text is translated into a color and shape, and in written order, layered upon each other. Why a mirror? A mirror is exact in its reflection. It shows what is there—no preconceptions, no comments. But add language to the mix. Language is slippery, and can mean many things all at once. What we end up with is a dialogue between viewer and mirror that encompasses hidden meaning, form, color, and fragmented reflections. I invite you to take a word, name, or phrase that has meaning to you; to create art with it; and to stand before it, contemplating your reflection in the context of your personal message. Try our algorithm here... the site is still a work in progress, but good enough to share. https://lnkd.in/guCnmmsm If you make something please share it - it is fun for us to see! For more information about 'Portraits", visit https://lnkd.in/gyj6ZVMr and contact @trameparis to inquire.

Last year, in collaboration with TRAME Paris and Club CPG, we unveiled the first collection of Craft Nouveau: "Navette" by artist Alexis André. This series features loom-woven tapestries corresponding to their unique digital artwork. Generative art unlocks endless possibilities for expression in the physical world, and "Navette" exemplifies this beautifully.
