Prism
Prism was the amalgamation of two impulses. To create a better version of the process I used in Storms and to use this one palette I had suddenly and fiercefully fallen in love with. I can no longer pinpoint what exactly made that palette click—after all it was a simple rainbow spectrum—but I had a very strong drive to put it to use. Perhaps it was the amount of muted colours I had used in my previous work that were revolting against me…
Gone were my Jupiter cues from Storms. Instead I wanted to play with the idea of light as a fluid. What if a prism split up the light into its constituent colours only to have them mix and intertwine once again?
One thing I am particularly fond of in this series is the fact that despite it’s look, each piece is made up of 500 fully opaque, even coloured polygons. Given a (very) steady hand an the correct 500 shades of paper, these could be cut out and assembled, rather than printed. Alternatively it could be saved as (one of) the worlds largest SVG file.
Apart from improving the rendering from Storms, I also began to play with different turbulence frequencies in different areas of the image to great effect.
While I started out with purely vivid colours I eventually added black and/or white (as can be seen in some of the examples above). The effect of mixing with black especially surprised me as the cloud feeling was almost 3 dimensional.
