CYCLES

CYCLES

"Cycles" is a generative art piece that visually explores the cyclical nature of life, time, and space. Blending beginnings and ends, it portrays human progress, decay, and rebirth over a 24-hour journey. Each edition shifts through intricate video loops that capture the subtleties often overlooked in our existence. Inspired by a philosophical reflection on the repetitive structures in life, "Cycles" serves as a manifestation of time’s relentless movement—always in flux yet interconnected. Minted on L2 Shape Network, limited to 10 editions.
