“Malfunction” is a generative artwork that explores the interplay between order and chaos. Inspired by the beauty found in technological errors, this work seeks to find a potential aesthetic sense in the conjunction of animated and juxtaposed forms.

Through an algorithmic process, the piece develops as a juxtaposition of shapes that run across the canvas, leaving traces and emerging in a dynamic and evolving composition, capturing the essence of the unpredictable nature of fault lines.

“Malfunction” is an invitation to immerse yourself in the chaotic beauty that arises from random processes. It is an attempt to reflect on the inherent beauty in imperfection, as it reminds us of the inherent fallibility within ourselves and our creations. Perhaps these fragmented forms make us imagine a place where disruptions become artistic expressions and dysfunctions become moments of aesthetic revelation.
