Entfaltung is German for unfolding. I begin with the pendulum drawings of Swiss healer-artist Emma Kunz (1892–1963) and unfold them out of the flat page into space and time. What Kunz fixed on graph paper, I set in motion. It is a living drawing, computed in real time. I pre-render nothing, and it never repeats.

Two-dimensional works on paper, drawn with a hybrid process that combines a mechanical plotter with pencil lines filled in by hand. A continuation of the pendulum drawings by Emma Kunz. Channeled from a large language model: our collective unconscious.

Entfaltung

A six-pointed star sits at the centre, with a triangle of three small stars at its core. Around it, sixteen blades lean in the same direction inside a ring, on a frame of concentric circles, chords and a horizontal and vertical axis. The plotter drew the lines in pen, and I added pencil by hand.

One of two *Nimbus* drawings. Both are built outward from a star at the centre of concentric rings.
