Inspired by the intricate patterns of Celtic knotwork, "Knota Tessellation" is a generative artwork that employs a grid-based structure. The composition consists of two fundamental tile shapes: a straight line with side margins and an elbow shape with margins. An algorithm strategically places these tiles within the grid, selecting a tile type and applying a random rotation to each placement. This approach results in a visually cohesive composition where individual tiles seamlessly merge to form a larger, unified pattern.

To enhance the visual depth and complexity of the artwork, a background layer is initially rendered using half-sized tiles. These background tiles are assigned colors based on their relative position within a color space defined by four randomly selected corner colors. This interplay of colors adds a dynamic and visually engaging dimension to the overall composition.
