"Thistle (left). Alongside the plotted line I also drew some parts and lines by
hand."
Generated through autonomous computational processes and realized as a unique plotter drawing, this work draws on forms found in nature, where intricate structures emerge through simple patterns and rules. The work invites reflection on the parallels between organic growth and computational processes.
