We divide spaces into smaller spaces which we conquer and live in our solitude. We call that Metropolis.

This artwork is created with code using custom subdivision algorithm which divides a rectangle into 9 pieces recursively.

In this artwork i took a unique approach which creates an optical illusion, giving the artwork totally different feeling when the image is flipped upside down. The interplay of light and shadow creates an illusionary dance that appears almost alive, as if the artwork itself breathes and pulses with its own rhythm.

As you stand before the artwork, the sense of depth and movement becomes apparent. The hip roof-like structures evoke a sense of architectural harmony, resembling either the majestic rooftops of a vibrant cityscape stretching towards the sky or the concave bowls of an otherworldly landscape receding into the ground.
