Mandelsage

Mandelsage is an artist who creates beauty and meaning out of chaos. Inspired by the astounding fact of our existence and the lack of innate meaning in the universe, he uses fractal geometry, code and (recently) A.I. to explore and discover unique patterns and forms. Driven by randomness and pareidolia, he describes his process as a joyful march of blind discovery, extracting beauty and meaning from the chaos of complex forms extrapolated from simple ones, similar to how evolution by natural selection shapes complex life. That said, he has recently begun attempting to create work with very specific intention, telling unique stories that leave little room for interpretation.

He sees ℈ℽ⍷-ᚤက, his pilot gen-art project, as a blend of these two creative approaches - specific intention in process and concept, yet the completed work enables varied understandings, depending on not only the observer but also (because the work is constantly evolving) the point in time of observation.
