Crossing at the Salt Crust

Every line had a reason, and none of the reasons was taste. There is nobody to disappoint by not liking it.

Three grids of parallel lines drawn over one another and rotated about the centre: one at zero, one at a small angle between 1.2 and 7.2 degrees, and a third at a negative fraction of that angle in an accent colour. The interference figure is never drawn. It is what your eye does with three grids that do not quite agree. This plate is seed 1061368221 in the Buffer Grey palette.

Crossing at the Venetian Wall, generative plate from seed 3081352918Streamlines through a fixed vector field. Each of 220 lines starts at a random point and takes 110 steps of five units, turning at every step by the sum of three sinusoids of its current position. A line stops early if it leaves the plate. Roughly one line in seven is drawn in an accent rather than the ink colour, and each is given its own width and opacity. This plate is seed 3081352918 in the Buffer Grey palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

A number went in. This came out. There is no third thing.

Second the Ledra Line

The density is a count. The balance is an accident of the count.

Model of a Dropped Frame, generative plate from seed 1862459546Forty-six bands stacked from the top down, each one a closed shape lying between two sine curves of differing amplitude, frequency and phase. The bands overlap, because each advances the cursor by only 62% of its own height. About one band in six is filled in an accent at higher opacity than the rest; the stack stops early if it runs past the bottom edge.
