The "Alphabetic Signs" series finds its roots in different places: in my physical work, in a study on letters and typefaces, but also in graffiti and street art.
In this project I was inspired by the symbols of the ancestors.
Prehistoric signs found in caves and hieroglyphs from different eras, such as the Inca or the Sumerian ones.
I wrote the Javascript code to compose 31 different ancestral signs that were used to fill a pseudo-random matrix.
Each element is coded to adapt to different areas on the canvas, tightening, stretching and expanding.
This is the second version of the algorithm in which textures have been introduced in the background using various color palettes. Additionally, to achieve a greater balance, transparencies have been incorporated into the filling of alphabetical symbols.
Everything is generated with code.
This work uses p5.js library.
