ChaotiColor

A rule, when it is repeated across a grid, becomes a tapestry — chaotic, precise, quietly yours.

I am an Iranian-born artist working at the intersection of classical ornament and generative systems. My work begins with a simple observation: the woven surface — repetitive, rule-bound, endlessly variable — has always been a form of computation. Every textile draft is a small program. Every pattern repeat is a loop.

ChaotiColor is a seed-based generative system that translates that structure into code. Each composition is built from a one-dimensional cellular automaton — a single row of cells that evolves downward, one generation at a time, according to a small set of binary rules. Where the rules meet, patterns emerge: triangles, filaments, spirals, sudden chaotic bursts.

Three modes govern the colour of the grid — black on colour, colour on black, or fully random RGB. The palette, the grid divisions, and the mode are all derived from a single numeric seed. Each piece can be regenerated, documented, and adapted for textile, print, and surface applications — from scarves and yardage to wallpaper and archival print.
