Overview

This release brings together 200 works selected from Pixel Symphony’s ongoing practice with Meditations in Color.

He built the project first as a place to look. A way to sit with artworks, distill their palettes, follow an artist’s chromatic journey, and carry that color intelligence into his own drawing system. These works emerge from that practice. Artist-derived palettes move through a hand-drawn algorithmic studio before being selected by eye.

For this release, he curated 200 works that felt alive as meditations in themselves. Some hold the memory of a painting through only a few tones. Some become architectural, atmospheric, almost textile. Others stay close to a single register, a rhythm, a temperature, or a field held steady.

In choosing palettes, there is naturally an emphasis on artists whose use of color has shaped the way he sees, artists who became building blocks for his own eye. But the archive is also a resource for uniqueness, a place where one can be endlessly inventive. In curating these works, he sought to draw out some of that inventiveness, the openness that color so readily lends itself to.

This release is a way of opening that practice outward. These 200 works come from a much larger archive of looking, studying, and drawing with color. The range runs from the fifteenth to the twentieth century, with the Renaissance, the Romantics, the Impressionists, the Expressionists, and the Abstract Expressionists all leaving their mark on the palettes.
