Opus - Designs for Neon Tessellations





The Base Elements residency got me thinking about processes of viral replication (and mutation) and the alchemical opus (transmutation of base metals, particularly lead, into gold). Using these processes as metaphors for the struggle toward perfection I created a series of 4 heraldic designs. The designs also have structural attributes and the capacity to form tessellations.
