Artist Mattias Jones has created a giant piece of art using a robot and the pattern of bees.
Titled ‘Mind Out’, the artwork stands as a 20-foot cube and the patterns are drawn by a robot that runs on software largely coded by Jones himself.
“The algorithm used for determining the pen’s route is based on how bees choose their own path flower to flower,” shares Jones.
“Whilst being up to my elbows in the maths and code of it, the reasons for choosing [the aesthetic] were purely visual--I appreciate the very organic shapes that occur from lots of short, straight lines.”
Jones’ “deep and abiding love for pattern” has produced a stunning result, creating beautiful patterns inspired from nature’s way of life.
