MODULATIONS
The patterning is generated from a Python script with each quadrant of the diamond tufted area (patch or panel) including four unique profiles reminiscent of grass clusters. Direct references to the stylized, repeatable geometries found in ancient Chinese painting techniques are represented within each cluster, as the individual blades of grass in profile intentionally overlap with each other -- similar to each cluster’s overlap with every other cluster. “Grass cluster” in Chinese is mang, in English, tussock. CNC milled geometries are 1 and 3-degree.
