Description
This piece is taking a further quarter of a rotated grid and enlarging it. I wanted to have as little control over the resulting compositions as possible. These sections are the end result, and the aim of the project.
As I am one of those people who can stare for hours at a piece of twig or stare lovingly at a rock - I thought I would explore our ability to appreciate natural phenomenon.
This project started by taking some photographs of rock faces with cracks and fractures that I thought it would be interesting to develop the concept of naturally occurring art.
Other than cutting out sections along the fractures to give interesting shapes, I haven't composed any of this work - rather... as it developed, I devised a system of grids, placing the original samples randomly, then started rotating sections of the grid to overlay other grids underneath and then applying layer filters.

Marvelous exploration! I love this freedom, a system which will allow nature to be the artist! It's a beautiful image! f/L+++

It was rather fun to do... I like being surprised :-). ... though the files were enormous and my computer was creaking!
