The Caretaker rests. Having leveraged the worlds for its needs, it leaves behind a meadow of destruction. Debris stretches across vast expanses, the only remnants of what has transpired. Tiny artifacts, some sculpted, some raw, stand as memorabilia from the Caretaker’s yield. Keepsakes that remind us of the cycle.
Keepsakes expands on the story of the Caretaker, each work depicting a timeless souvenir. Formed by the event, these souvenirs contain spillover from the Caretaker’s essence, each radiating in unique colorful patterns. Some color schemes are recognizable, others never before seen.
Keepsakes is built on p5js. It is one algorithm utilized over two collections. The curated collection consists of 16 editions, carefully hand picked out of thousands of outputs by the artist, one for each existing palette. 400 further pieces from the algorithm will be minted utilizing the long form generative process ensuring the magic of random generation is a feature of the project.
