Description
This selection of video works is part of an ongoing series that Nicky Hamlyn began in 2008, focusing on spontaneous and "found" moiré patterns. Moiré patterns are a well-known and long-understood phenomenon, typically generated by the superimposition of regular patterns.
"My interest in these patterns stems from the fact that they constitute disruptions in the visual field (...). Moiré patterns are just one rather striking example of the many ways in which visual information can become ambiguous or complicated and therefore unreliable: an aesthetic experience is thus generated".
— Nicky Hamlyn
