Description

Edition 11 of 50, 2024

A collection of unique prints by Erwan Bouroullec. 'Rise and Fall of a Decade' is a body of work that uses computer algorithms, determinacy and coincidence to create unique abstracts. Although Erwan is the creator of the mechanism that produces the digital drawings, he turns spectator when the software runs its course.

"...it’s a little like painting but with a brush I do not control, just after it touched the canvas. All of it is the story of a map growing and evolving, where at the end entropy wins and meanings fall. Rise and Fall." Erwan Bouroullec

“They use an engine which I coded. The coded rules create attraction in between the elements and somehow repulsion too.” – Erwan Bouroullec
