BACKGROUND INFORMATION
David Mrugala is a German architect, educator and prize-winning intermedia artist living and working in South Korea. He creates visual stories and events inspired by urban culture and architectural space. In addition to his work as an architect, he also helped establish “thedotisblack”, a platform for research design dedicated to generative and procedural drawings and animations made with code. He also focuses on movement, geometry, scientific study, sound analysis and digital manufacturing.
In his work, Mrugala understands space as a productive entity that can use geometric textures to create stunningly sensual motifs and images. The image surface becomes a place to experience emphatically graphic and optical-illusional displays and experiments, elaborated in both an abstract and a figurative manner, with the gradual shifting of generative parameters producing a highly surprising image structure.
Generative Portraits I consists of multiple sequences of diverse, overlapping human silhouettes that produce continuous yet distinct images. Each sequence is determined by a specially developed algorithm, an autonomous system that analyses images and transforms them into numbers that alter the size, speed and direction of movement. Each sequence produces a tale of complicated movements, a generative portrait that is constantly in motion.
Generative Portraits Street Art continues the concept of overwriting. Sequences of various iconic works of street art become overlapping images and produce continuous yet distinct impressions.
