Kunza

In 1949, the last known native speaker of Kunza died in the Atacama desert of Chile, leaving behind only fragments of a language that stretched back to when the Incans ruled the region. The textures, patterns, and colors in this project are not intended to be historically accurate: they tell a story. They are my attempt to reach into the past and imagine a vibrant history that is increasingly inaccessible.

Features include weave design, symbol layout, symbol style, and color palette.

After the image has fully rendered, pressing ‘w’, ‘r’, or ‘c’ will toggle different elements of the image, and pressing ‘s’ will download a PNG file.

I have been creating art since I was four, including drawing, painting, and stained glass. Now, I write computer programs to distil my artistic vision into a set of executable instructions laced with random variation.
