ARTECHOUSE, the nation’s first innovative digital art destination with locations in Washington, DC, New York City and Miami Beach, opens its 2021 NYC exhibition season with Geometric Properties by Julius Horsthuis, an award-winning visual and fractal artist based out of Amsterdam. The immersive audio-visual installation is the latest in the ARTECHOUSE series of collaborations with some of the leading artists working at the intersection of art, science and technology. A mind-bending journey through the infinite geometric patterns of fractal worlds, it takes us on an exploration from our recent past to an ideal future — one that returns to nature and math as a source for inspiration.
Horsthuis envisions his process much like a National Geographic photographer and filmmaker, where he is operating in a world that already exists and it is up to him to search for the right angle and present his surroundings in the most impactful way possible.
Through the creative cinematic expression of the endless iterations and fractional dimensions, Geometric Properties explores mathematical patterns to stimulate existential self reflection and emphasize the pure wonderment of being. Inspired by a vision of mathematics as the language of nature, Horsthuis presents a new existence: an immersive, eternal reality removed from the complexities of the everyday. Within this reimagined world, we are free to visualize ourselves within the larger whole.
Single and group tickets ranging from $17-25 can be reserved in advance here.
