Cory Haber is creating a collection of 100 generative oil paintings, over the course of a year, using his custom-built plotter.

‘Apophenies’ is a generative art collection that calls the relationship between art and technology into question.

Each artwork starts as a digital representation that, using the exact same code, is also expressed in physical form using a mechanical plotter, canvas, & oil paint. A shared DNA expressed in different formats.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Cory Haber is a New York-based generative artist, widely recognized for his innovative approach to bridging the gap between digital and physical art forms. With a passion for exploring the intersection of technology and art, Cory has successfully crafted a distinct artistic style that captures the essence of nature through computational design.

 

Cory began exploring the use of a plotters to create art in 2016. What began as an experiment turned into a passion. Cory discovered new forms of expression and new mechanisms of creation. Not content to use off-the-shelf paintbrushes, instead, he 3D prints his own, in order to create a distinctive style for his large-scale paintings on canvas. Each of his creations, both digital and physical, stem from the same foundational source code, yet evolves into separate, distinct pieces of art.

  • To collect ‘Apophenies,’ you can select and purchase an available piece from the marketplace.

  • The oil painting is 36” by 48”

  • Over the next year, Cory will create all 100 paintings and in the Fall of 2024, we will host a second show displaying the full collection. Once the show concludes we will reach out to coordinate pickup or shipping. Shipping is not included. Once the show concludes we will reach out to coordinate pickup or shipping.
