Waves 2.0: Terra (2023)
Made using custom code, computational simulation technologies and artificial intelligence, “WAVES” is a series of works started in 2014, that draws upon the well established history of both artistic and scientific study on oceans and oceanic waves.
Inspired by the works of J.M.W Turner, Katsushika Hokusai, Ivan Aivazovsky, and many others, the work is a data dramatization of complex ocean simulations, distilled and re-imagined in the form of abstracted visuals and sounds; studies that investigate the tension and delicate balance between the immense power and incredible fragility of the oceans; simultaneously mighty yet delicate; calming yet terrifying; graceful yet violent; a symbol of fear, danger and death as well as hope, freedom and life.
The series also expands to ‘waves’ beyond the ocean, to other kinds of waves that permeate our lives: sound waves, quantum field waves, social & political waves, and in the case of this particular work – to waves in the crust of the Earth, slow motion waves on geological timescales, mountains.
