This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed π¨
Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
I've been playing around with more abstract stuff lately - I'm doing a series of prints that are basically just weird circles, hence the goofy old timey name of cyclometry :) The colors on this came out really neat in person!
What is it? Looks a bit like a CD.
It's actually a plate of titanium I did some patterned anodization on. Anodizing titanium creates a nanometers thick crystalline layer that can constructively/destructively interfere with lightwaves to create color without pigments or dyes. I invented a process to spatially control anodization a few months ago and I've been using to create art ever since. Let me know if you have any other questions!
These are so cool, I hope your patent gets granted so I can read more about your process :)
I actually just got the provisional patent filed! I'm going to start working on a breakdown of the process now and throw it up on my website. If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer now though!
I love the iridescent effect! The geometric design makes me think of some far future sci fi, like Foundation or Dune.
Good call, I can totally see that!
