Flowers
2022, HD Video 0‘50”
Flowers is a digital artwork that blends images of nature into a seamless, infinite loop.
Utilizing state-of-the-art technologies like algorithmic face tracking and optical flow interpolation, the work explores the ephemeral beauty of digital metamorphosis.
In Ancient Greek philosophy, the concept of physis (nature) was seen as a process of continuous becoming—an interplay between growth, decay, and renewal. Flowers can be viewed as a digital echo of this idea, where pixels dissolve and re-form in an endless cycle.
The soundscape, created using data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, mirrors unseen cosmic processes that shape the universe. These sounds reflect transformations beyond human perception, inviting viewers to contemplate mysteries of the intangible and the unknown.
Commissioned by From Athens to Brussels with Love and presented at the 2022 Spring Energia event, Flowers invites viewers to reflect on the interplay of order and chaos in the digital realm.
