The brood – La covata, 2022

Series of 3D-rendered images, made publicly available in NFT format,

Unspecified number of pieces, 3890×3890 px

 

The research and findings, published on 23 August 2021 in the article “Egg and math: introducing a universal formula for egg shape” by Valeriy G. Narushin, Michael N. Romanov and Derren K. Griffin, is what ”The brood” is based on: the series of images are a visual exploration and translation of the formula proposed by the afore mentioned researchers.

The formula – and its variables – are in their 3D-application bound to time and randomness, making each rendered image unpredictable and unique, yet resulting each time in a perfect shape in terms of mathematics of the egg.
To accentuate the uniqueness of each piece, and to conscribe this work specifically to the digital world, the images will be available for purchase as NFTs.
