I love this type of art. I make digital geometric art, currently complex tilings, at https://andrewwulf.com (not selling any, just showing it). Geometry and math can be very appealing to people although it’s not that popular commercially today outside of NFTs. Repetition and variation can be powerful tools in art. Wacław deserves more recognition.


I enjoyed those, thanks! I like the circular grid eddy type ones the most. I wanted to highlight some favourites but they have a curious phenomenon where, after studying one for a while, looking at a new one is so refreshing that it always ranks higher so I just get stuck in a circle myself!

Reminds me of the graphic design at "May Contain Hackers 2022" that I really liked: https://mch2022.org/#/ which included a tool to generate similar designs https://mch2022.org/design/

Also reminds me of Bernard Cohen works that I loved in Tate Modern. For me, he achieves something next level which is to go beyond just pressing my "pleasing geometric pattern" buttons but also the type of order/disorder that feels like a human intelligence at work too.

I can't find a page including the ones I have in mind but:

https://www.artnet.com/artists/bernard-cohen/

Sod it, this is probably more comprehensive:

I feel compelled to add my own geometric art for the shake of completion since it seems like a hobby from a few of us HNers:

(Not selling either)


Great work! One of my favorites people should check out is https://x.com/beesandbombs


Also on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davebeesbombs/


I would buy a t-shirt for every one of the designs on the "Recent" page. You should think about adding a merch page.


If you like to explore on programmatic art, you may also have fun with allrgb.

That is to use all rgb values exactly once to make an art work.

Examples: https://allrgb.com/


Me too

Beautiful work. What's your technique for making these?


He wrote a blog explaining it: https://thecodist.com/my-art-and-color-after-tiling/


beautiful art, thanks for sharing. I thought you would enjoy this too (animations)

Wow, some of them look very artistic, I think they would look quite at home on shadertoy too.


To complete the thought, when I saw your art, I was reminded of these shaders that I came across:

https://www.shadertoy.com/view/wljfDw

https://www.shadertoy.com/view/Xs2GDd

https://www.shadertoy.com/view/XccXzr

https://www.shadertoy.com/view/dlBBzc

https://www.shadertoy.com/view/WdlSRX

Not quite on the same level, but I think the essence comes through.

Anyway, I just finished looking at all your works on display this morning. Such beautiful arrangements of patterns and colors.

Thank you for posting, I'm in awe!
