Teardrop takes a simple geometric form, a teardrop, and uses it to generate a wide array of abstract patterns. Using repetition, symmetry, negative space and various colour palettes a wide variety of outputs emerge.

Some pieces distort the viewer's perception of perspective and colour. Others distort straight lines making them appear curved and from others unique textures and figurative forms emerge.

Teardrop started as an investigation into negative space and patterns in the geometric abstract art of last century. From this the teardrop form was distilled and then applied in a generative context to create the wide array of patterns in the final project.

Teardrop originated from daily sketches for Genuary day 31 in 2022 where I was exploring the work of Gordon Walters, Op art & the use of negative space to create depth and texture.
