Chinese Warrior
Posted on in Faces of Chaos
A quote from Strangely Attractive by Lisa Delgado on Rhizome.org, regarding my Faces of Chaos series:
Mythology meets chaos theory in Nathan Selikoff’s Faces of Chaos series. A leering death mask and the smiling face of a Chinese warrior are just a couple of the forms the artist discovered while sorting through hundreds of images he created using the Lyapunov exponent, a commonly used measure of how chaotic or predictable a dynamical system is.
Chinese Warrior by Nathan Selikoff. 2007. Dimensions variable. Open edition print.
Lisa interviewed me after seeing the Math and Art exhibition at AXIOM, where I exhibited Chinese Warrior and four other pieces in the series as part of a group show.
