Portrait of Decisions

This was the first time I submitted to the GRAPHITE conference held in Perth, Australia.

[Artist Statement] We make decisions for ourselves everyday and each of us follows a pathway created by our own decisions and their consequences. Inspired by a simple maze generation algorithm that applies the rule of “try to visit every compartment without repetition”, the artist discovered that every single step of the maze generation process also built a pathway of decisions which could be revealed elegantly as an interesting spatial structure.
