Artist's Description
From a square "tile" cut from a digital photograph of the spotted and swirled leaves of the tropical Calathea "Makoyana" plant, this tesselated digital collage emerges, teasing the viewer with its optical illusions of spiders, tigers, vines, and foliage. The tesselation process of horizontal and vertical mirroring included vertical displacment of the "leafy" edges; this action created the "diamond" borders on either side of the "tiger" medallions while color manipulation shifted the original greens and browns to more eye-catching reds and golds. This mosaic is better displayed with the vertical orientation that reveals the calathea jungle's hidden "creatures."
About Jennifer Nelson
I have long admired the ethos and creativity of British socialist and artist William Morris and the Arts & Craft Movement he inspired. He could look at the natural world thriving around his idyllic Kelmscott Manor and draw nature-themed designs for wallpaper, tapestries, book-page illuminations, tile glazing, and wood carving that realized his vision of "transform[ing] the world with Beauty." I want to contribute Beauty to our world, too, through my nature photography and my explorations of tessellated digital art creation.
