Sierra - Plate K

Sierra carves a lone mountain from chance and serendipity. From thousands of generative outputs, Matt DesLauriers was struck by an artwork that broke the confines of his algorithm. Like a mountain reaching out from the landscape below, his code had arranged colours to cast an ‘alpenglow’. This optical phenomenon occurs when the sun dips below the horizon, bathing mountain peaks in a fiery glow. A paired print and NFT collaboration with Avant Arte, each NFT corresponds to the bitmap of a CMYK layer in Sierra.
