about HEXEOSIS
hexeosis art
Hexeosis art is a journey into geometry, symmetry, and the concept of infinity, expressed through mesmerizing animated geometric looping GIFs. Central to my work is the hexagon, a shape with unique properties capable of tiling a plane without gaps, symbolizing balance and endless continuity. My animations evoke perpetual motion and transformation, offering visually stunning experiences that captivate and inspire.
The color palettes I use often employ triadic harmonies, enhancing the psychedelic and mystical ambiance of my work. Each transition in the animations is hand-animated, reflecting a meticulous approach to capturing human visual perception. This careful attention to detail creates unique visual experiences that resonate deeply with viewers.
Hexeosis began as a personal exploration of digital art and quickly grew into a platform that connects with a diverse audience. The project was born from a moment of profound psychedelic inspiration, leading to the creation of my signature hexagonal animations. These animations have gained traction on platforms like Tumblr, resonating with fans of geometric art, psychedelic enthusiasts, scientists, innovators, mathematicians, hypnotists, and major corporations.
My work is rooted in a fascination with the infinite and the geometric. The animations are not just visually striking but also conceptually rich, reflecting themes of harmony, transformation, and the endless possibilities of digital art. By combining traditional art forms with modern technology, hexeosis pushes the boundaries of what digital art can achieve.
The project has evolved to include various formats and platforms, including NFTs on Ethereum and Tezos, making hexeosis a part of the evolving landscape of digital and crypto art. My goal is to continue exploring new technologies and platforms to expand the reach and impact of my work.
Hexeosis is more than just a collection of animated GIFs; it's an ongoing exploration of the intersection between art and technology. Through my work, I aim to create experiences that are both visually and intellectually stimulating, inviting viewers to explore the infinite possibilities of geometry and digital art.
