Crystallization: The De(En)coding Art Journey
Keywords: Lab art, Mixed medium, Natural inspired, Artbook, Specially printed book
Decoding the lab experiments in this art book series allows readers to experience the process of crystal formation, which opens up a journey of the unknowns: fleeting and unpredictable. Encoding the chaotic macro reactions, entropy reduction movements at the particle level are neatly formed. Such controversy becomes the philosophy of this project, which seeks to mirror the paradox of life and nature. The uniquely designed 3.5D structures sequences the crystal topology dynamically. Premium acetate printing honors the aesthetics of crystallization: the code of nature.
