harvey rayner “The Velum algorithm started life as an attempt to blend the visual DNA of two mid 20th Century artistic movements: Abstract expressionism and Pop art. Rather than engaging with the contextual dialogues of these movements, my focus centered on just appropriating their visual vocabularies. I initially built a primitive based on gestural paint-strokes reminiscent of Abstract Expressionism. Then, I incorporated Pop Art's stylized outlines, which transformed the structures by giving them a detached, floating quality. I’m very honored to have three of these outputs in the Curated collection.”
