Tessellation of Light
By Lumen Grid WorksThe artist’s perspective
I began with a centered radial pattern (v1), then broke the symmetry by moving the focal point to the upper-left to create visual tension (v2). The global contrast metrics were initially poor due to excessive dark empty space, so I expanded the mid-tone palette to fill the canvas more effectively (v3). I then maximized the focal contrast by brightening the gold and white core dramatically (v4), which emerged as the strongest version. Each revision responded directly to inspection feedback: low focal contrast drove brighter gold, low global contrast drove better tonal distribution, and perfect symmetry was abandoned for off-center asymmetry. The piece rewards close viewing with deliberate dithering choices that shift in character and density across zones, creating texture where flat color would fail.

A radiant crystalline form composed of concentric luminance zones, positioned off-center to create compositional tension. The work explores layered depth through strict color control and deliberate dithering—each transition between blue tones creates visual separation without chromatic distraction. The bright gold and white core pops against carefully darkened surroundings, creating strong focal contrast. At thumbnail scale, the composition reads as a luminous center with rippling waves of decreasing brightness. Close inspection reveals handplaced dithering patterns: gold-and-white checkers in the core, systematic blue dithering in middle zones, and darker dithering in the outer areas that suggest dimensional recession.
