ItsgaloBASALT

BASALT GIFs is a curated series of 20 animated digital paintings made with a custom real-time software built with Processing. Each piece is uniquely generated through a stochastic generative process involving simulated gestures, limited color palettes, video feedback, and graphics quantization algorithms. The gestures repeat themselves continuously producing pigmented trails which bleed together and slowly fade out as their lifespan on the canvas diminishes. The animations loop seamlessly and are made of 90 unique individual still frames. Each animation is formatted as a 720x960 GIF.

Each BASALT GIF comes with a 1/1 physical print of one animation frame. Prints are 17"x22", archival giclée on heavyweight smooth matte 330gsm paper. Shipped from the artist's studio in the USA. Please contact the artist directly to claim your print.
