"Fractal Tessellation of Spirals"
$95.00
*** Sold ***
"Fractal Tessellation of Spirals" is based on a fractal tessellation of kite-shaped tiles discovered by Dr. Fathauer some ten years earlier. All of the spirals in the print have the same shape (more precisely, they are all similar in the Euclidean plane). Digital print created in 2011. For a closer look at the print, please click here. Archival print on heavy watercolor paper, no. 5/50. Image size 15" x 15".

   

"Fractal Tree No. 5"
$95.00
"Fractal Tree No. 5" is a digital artwork constructed by graphically iterating a photographic building block created from photographs of the base of a rose bush. The rugged appearance of the thorny stalks is juxtaposed with the light feathery appearance of the overall fractal. Created in 2007. For a closer look at the print, please click here. Archival print on heavy watercolor paper, no. 9/50. Image size 14" x 20".

   

"Twice Iterated Knot No. 1" Framed
$190.00
The starting point for this knot is a nine-crossing knot that has been carefully arranged to allow seamless iteration. Four regions of this starting knot are replaced with a scaled-down copy of the full starting knot, incorporated in such a way that the iterated knot is still unicursal. These same four regions are then replaced with a scaled-down copy of the iterated knot, resulting in a complex knot possessing self similarity. "Twice Iterated Knot No. 1" is a limited edition of 50 digital prints created in 2008. Dimensions 21" x17" including natural maple frame.

   

"Fractal Tree No. 13"
$95.00
"Fractal Tree No. 13" is a digital artwork constructed by graphically iterating a photographic building block created from photographs of some twigs from a palo verde tree. Created in 2010. For a closer look at the print, please click here. Archival print on heavy watercolor paper, no. 5/50. Image size 15" x 18".

   

"Fractal Tree No. 7", Framed
$190.00
This is a digital artwork constructed by graphically iterating a photographic building block created from photographs of the skeleton of a cholla cactus. "Fractal Tree No. 7" is a limited edition of 50 prints, completed in 2009. Dimensions 23" x 21" including frame.

   

"Spiraling Flowers"
$95.00
Tessellated flowers and leaves are arranged in a pattern with eight-fold rotational symmetry (four-fold if color is considered). Selective coloring of the outer and inner portions of the flowers brings out sets of counter-rotating spirals.The design is a fractal with a lone singular point at the center, since zooming in repeatedly about the center reveals similar structure at any magnification. Digital print created in 2011. For a closer look at the print, please click here. Archival print on heavy watercolor paper, no. 5/50. Image size 16" x 16".

The diamondback rattlesnake and scorpion tiles together are formed from the Penrose kite, while the Phoenix-bird is formed from the Penrose dart. For a closer look at the print, please click here.
