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

Nine flower-like figures from the same generator are laid out in three rows of three and overlap at their edges. I then put all nine through one transformation together. The plotter drew everything in pen.
