algorithmic modeling for Rhino
Sharing my new art project, titled "A million worlds bloom beneath a million lids", illustrating the unique inner world of each individual. It's based on the idea that every person sees the world differently due to their unique inner landscape, which is shaped by nurture, personal life experiences, and social factors.
The size of the iris (yellow discs) represents the breadth of an individual's perception; how wide or narrow their view of the world is. Red teardrops symbolize negative emotions like sorrow and grief, while dark blue ones represent feelings of happiness and joy. Red disks depict a person's inner mind or true persona. The size of the disk reflects how expansive that persona is, and its visibility shows whether a person is open or prefers to keep their true self hidden. And all the eyes in the artwork are directed towards the center, which symbolizes the shared, objective universe. This shows that while we all live in the same physical reality, we each project our own unique, subjective meaning onto it, creating our distinct perceptions of the world and our own attitude towards it.
The artwork as a whole conveys a dream of a world where people can live together in harmony despite their differences, recognizing that we are, in essence, all one.
The entire scene was digitally modeled in Rhino, except the plant, which was sourced from the Megascans library. I designed the parametric artwork with a custom Grasshopper algorithm and then rendered it in Keyshot, where I refined its procedural textures to get the final look. I'm hoping to turn this into a real, physical piece someday, if resources permits me to do so. :)
