Ozan Turkkan
New Media Artist
Barcelona, Spain
As a contemporary artist, I have general interest in experimental media and digital arts, and specific interest in complexity, generative computer art, algorithmic art and fractal geometry. I am using new computer tools that use algorithms in different programming languages to generate my art pieces.
I really enjoy to explore the many-folded boundaries between math and art in a creative process, to understand and reflect the universal nature and consciousness. Since mathematics is not just about formulas and logic, but about patterns, symmetry, structure, shape and beauty. I find there beauty of chaos and order together, and the balance between the masculine and feminine nature.
Silence of the Mind
600 x 600 mm
Digital Print on Paper
2010
Silence of the Mind is a generative artwork project which is developed using a generative grammar programming language, Context Free Grammar (CFG). And some additional image editing tools.
Chaotic-looking image which represents fractal behavior of our mind, created by an algorithm (whihch is a well-ordered collection of unambiguous and effectively computable operations that when executed produces a result and halts in a finite amount of time) using a generative grammar programming language.
Masculine Polynomial
314 mm(width) x 445 mm(height)
Digital Print on Paper
2010
Generative Artwork based on Polynomial Functions which is developed by using a software to generate fractal images. And some additional image editing tools.
In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression of finite length constructed from variables (also known as indeterminates) and constants, using only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents.
This artwork is developed and rendered for both 2D and 3D printing. It's a study on creating human made fractal structures using math and programming languages.
Feminine Polynomial

Digital Print on Paper
2010
Generative Artwork based on Polynomial Functions (2D) which is developed by using a software to generate fractal images. And some additional image editing tools. In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression of finite length constructed from variables (also known as indeterminates) and constants, using only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents.
It's a study on creating abstract fractal geometry structures using math and programming languages.
