Inspired by the selective observation techniques used in studying natural phenomena, my artwork delves into the concept of rendering the surrounding environment transparent to focus on specific elements of interest. Drawing from established methods in biology, such as X-ray diffraction and tissue histology, which unveil the internal structures of microscopic objects by making their surrounding media transparent, I embarked on a journey to synthesize nature-inspired patterns within transparent plastic structures, creating macroscopic assemblies.

I aim to evoke a sense of wonder akin to the excitement experienced by biologists in research labs when observing similar structures. This installation represents the culmination of my experiments with transparent materials, comprising 50 printed plastic sheets suspended in a horizontal series. Abstract patterns are synthesized through a simulation of reaction-diffusion systems, and the variation over the series can be interpreted spatially or temporally.

Through this artwork, viewers are encouraged to contemplate the interplay between pattern and medium and explore the intricate relationship between transparency and perception, reflecting on the philosophical importance of all that we cannot see.
