today and tomorrow

This installation brings back memories of 2a and the paper folding project. "nodes and creases", glad that is over, but cant say we didn't learn something from it.
The artist, Jerzy Goliszewski looks into the structures of nature to create the patterns, and a quote from the site which I think offers the best description of the project intentions:
"the common sight of a cracked layer of paint or peeling plaster shows the passage of time which transforms the original shapes, giving them a completely new look.
The work refers to the mirror which, as the fairy tale tells, broke into pieces distortioning the world and making it hideous and absurd."
This is pretty much what we have been doing, distorting our perception of an object/image using our fancy computer tools to create.
