JULIEN GACHADOAT
Julien Gachadoat (aka v3ga) has been exploring generative drawing for many years. He grew up in the 90s amid the avant-garde demo scene, making visuals with code. Ever since, programming languages have been his creative tool. Creating unique art with algorithms, he works with the emergence of abstract form. Combining monochrome, geometric shapes, he plays with repetition, using random operations to generate an element of surprise. Gachadoat uses the computer to develop his own creative tools based on simple graphic rules, and then to explore the formal possibilities that ensue. By printing these unique pieces with a plotter, he creates a link between text and code, between computer and pencil, and between the rigour of code and the poetry of art.
Hypercombination, 2024
Plotter drawing on Fedrigoni Sirio Ultra Black 280 g/m²

Size: 42 x 42 cm
"Hypercombination" is based on the combinatorial potential and random distribution of geometric shapes with symmetries and interlocking in a structure of squares of different sizes. The number of lines constituting these shapes is connected to a structure made of concentric squares, in direct reference to the works "Hypertransformation" and "Quatre éléments distribués au hasard" by Vera Molnár.
An algorithm was specifically created to produce this artwork, a unique composition selected from a wide range of possibilities.
