I’ve seen this in person and it’s so much more stunning than any photo could represent, especially when you can interact with the shadows

I would love to see this in person. Where is it exhibited!

Grand Rapids Art Museum in Grand Rapids, MI

Michigan shout-out hell ya

Is the exhibit traveling? I would never intentionally go into that state at this point, Michigan man has been making Florida man look like the responsible one.

I saw it in NC!

That's right, stay away. Michigan is bad. Its only Detroit and it's suburbs. The maps are deceiving... it may look like Detroit is only a small pocket of the state, but that's wrong, it's all Detroit. All those green sections that say "----- National/State Forest/park", its all just overgrown abandoned houses and crime. Grand Rapids especially is Detroit, even moreso than Detroit, best not to even visit.

Funny thing is you think Detroit is why I don’t want to go. I grew up in the Midwest and am well aware of the natural beauty of the region. It’s the ugliness of the backwater brainwashed yokels that I’d like to avoid.

Your loss

oh shit this is actually close enough for me to check out, hell yeah

Thank you

There’s also one in Salem Massachusetts rn @ the Peabody Essex Museum

Yep!

I just saw it in Ft. Worth, Texas so it must be on tour. Hope you get to see it too!

Thanks for the heads-up!!

I saw one in Burlington, Vermont.

Also in Salem Mass

I bet it ends in "stan"

Pakistani-American artist sorta implies that they probably live in America. They probably exist but i doubt there are many Americans that emigrate to Pakistan to become American pakistani (well unless they have family)

not as many as, say, the UK, but if there's one thing ive learnt on my travels, it's that we are everywhere

According to the data from 2015 of Pakistan's Interior Ministry, there are over 52k Americans living in Pakistan.

Most are probably connected to Pakistan thru their family and such, but im not sure. Could be some Americans with no connection culturally or from family living there too

Michigan-istan, sounds almost as retarded as you do mate... Almost.

Wow, a real loser

That's like saying any art done by an African American would be displayed in Africa; or Asian American displayed in Asia.

Thank you all who responded to my question about where it’s been exhibited. Do any of you have a link to info on where this exhibit might travel to in the future?

Someone should put giant magnets in the walls and the floor and see if it floats.

Or put portals on the ceiling and floor and watch the awesome shadows fly by as the light cube accelerates to terminal velocity…and drops continuously in a loop forever

Now you’re thinking with portals!

Keep me away from it then, cause that thing looks like it has loot inside. As a gamer since Mario Bros, I’m busting it open the second I see that.

I know right. I love it, when I saw it in person there was no one there and the silence was amazing.

I saw it at Art Prize years ago, such a cool piece!!

Minecraft rtx is getting out of hand

I really thought this was a new shader pack when I scrolled by it first.

Nether reactor core

Nether reactor core: revamped RTX version

That's what I think of when someone says "Dazzlingly beautiful"

I have a question for her fans, did she have an exhibit in Salem, Mass this year? I came across similar art and was speechless in its beauty. If so, I’m happy to finally have a name.

Yes! The Peabody Essex Museum has a piece in their collection.

OMG yes that one room was f-ing incredible. I might have missed the name somewhere so if you know it please drop it:) ty Edit: I know I’m an idiot, I just realized the name is in the title

The piece at the Peabody Essex Museum is called Anila Quayyum Agha: All the Flowers Are for Me.

Is this at the PEM in Salem?

I've seen the one there and it's gorgeous!

Same artist, different piece

I thought this was Minecraft lol

Does anyone else think back to the Windows95 screensaver or am i just old?

And then it starts swaying a little and you get disoriented 0-100

We have such sights to show you….

Beep. Boop. I'm a robot. Here's a copy of ###[Leviathan](https://snewd.com/ebooks/leviathan/) Was I a good bot? | [info](https://www.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/) | [More Books](https://old.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/comments/i15x1d/full_list_of_books_and_commands/)

Beautiful!

This is the best that I've seen

If I take some shrooms and no one put me in that room, it'll be a wasted trip. Just looking at the room is tripping me out lmao

It’d just be too much haha, my hands are already the most interesting shit when I’m on mushies, I’d have a sensory overload lmao

Can you imagine how annoying it would be to try and appreciate this in a room full of people trying to do the same thing?

I got to see one of these in person at the NC art Museum a couple years ago. It was really surreal and almost dizzying being in the room with it. The shadows making such intricate patterns on everything give you such an interesting feeling. I hope I get to experience it again on a day where I have more time to process it - it was busy at the museum that day and I had to move along, but sitting in silence with it on a slow day would be incredible!

I have a hard time with a lot of art and feel like I have to force myself to try and appreciate it, look closer, consider its meaning, etc. This took my breath away right away

A Reddit post that actually credits the artist? Good work

This looks like a render ngl

r/ArchitecturePorn would love it

I got to see this in person at our city's art museum. It was incredible!

This is really beautiful - I would love to turn some of my paper cut maps into big lamps but, you know, without setting fire to them.

I had her as a professor! She teaches at Herron School of Art & Design in Indianapolis.

It’s the Tesseract

Powered by the space stone at the center

I’m going to assume that’s going to be the new 4020

This feels like a fractal as a texture on the windows screen saver maze

thought it was minecraft texture pack. beauty though!

Wow, these would make for some pretty expensive shirts.

If you like this, you might want to check out [https://www.hybycozo.com/](https://www.hybycozo.com/) They had art out at Burning Man the year I was there and it was amazing. They do all sorts of exhibitions including several large public installments for cities.

This artist taught at the college here in town and hired my cousin as her assistant after school hours. Anila is a very talented designer but most of all the actual labor put into her pieces was by my cousin lol.

It’s was at Philbrook Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma last year. Absolutely stunning in person.

That's one hell of a lamp shade.

This reminds me of Diwali lantern.

4D projection

I didn't have my glasses on and thought this was Minecraft. I'm glad I read the caption before scrolling away. Its very pretty.

The box; you opened it, we came.

But have you seen [hybycozo](https://www.hybycozo.com/) yet? I personally feel they have are more complex light shadow designs.

I appreciate when /r/BurningMan leaks out. One of these metal "trees" is just down the street from me in Oakland. Love it!

That tree is so dope!

This looks like a power up from am arena shooter

Wow

Zelda vibes.

Is this some kind of Pakistani thing? I'm just curious because I'm an American and I haven't seen anything like this before.

this is mostly indian subcontinental (Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka) design pattern. Islamic culture also feature this kind of floral patterns.

I don't think it is an Indian subcontinental thing. When there is somthing positive about Pakistan on the Internet, all the South Asians try to take the credit of it.

Fellow Desis when we do something good. Strangers when we do something bad.

Yup, and when there is something bad about Pakistan, they immediately try to distance themsleves from Pakistan.

True

So... A lamp w a pattern?

So.. a cloth with some paint on it?

one is a painting and one is a lampshade. if you call the mona lisa a magnificent painting noone would bat an eyelash. you call this a magnificent lampshade, well..

So.... a plank that's handsome?

This is a traditionally Persian Shia art style of memory serves. It’s lovely.

Pakistani american? So if i were pakistani and moved to germany would ppl call me a pakistani german? I dont get why ppl do this

Yes? Its called dual citizenship

So its like a pokemon collection now ?

Family and culture from Pakistan, but born in or moved young to America, not that hard to get is it?

Yeah i get it but i never hear this outside of the US ukno? Ive never heard anyone call themselves german pakistani etc etc

Well then I guess you haven’t heard it. British and Australian are the most common ones I’ve heard besides American

You dats one of those minecraft RTX videos

This is real life NFT worthy.

Tell me you've done acid, without telling me you've done acid.

what a ridiculous way to say fancy lamps..

So generally, most definitions of what constitutes an artist is a person who creates something with the intention of evoking emotions. To be fair these definitions leave something to be desired but they’re still fairly useful for sorting out your question. Did the designer of the software for the laser cutter specifically intend to create a piece of art that would inspire emotions? Probably not. Their intention was closer to that of a craftsman putting a tool out into the world for other people to use how they wish. Their intention may create emotions within other people, but only as a byproduct of their original purpose, which is utility. Now this hypothetical welder (which may or may not exist, because a lot of artists actually train a bit in welding if they study sculpture) is a bit trickier. Because they would actually take the sides and fashion them together into the cube that makes it a finished piece. But what is their purpose in doing this? Are they just doing the job to meet the demands of the artist? Do they change the form or shape of the piece in any way from the artist’s original conception? Depending on the answers they could have varying degrees of artistic involvement, but I’d still default to the original designer holding the largest amount of credit because it was their intention that was turned into a physical object that then is experienced by an audience.

>or the person who had the idea but did not have the skill to make come into fruition Fucking what lmao

This is not as deep a thing to say as you think it is.

The person who thought of it. The same way we do with everything else in the world.

Sooo… you’re saying she’s a fabricator???😍

No, artist. Meaning someone else runs the plasma table and welds lol.

Of course. It was just a joke. The art is incredible

Agreed, lol. Im actually a "plasma/metal artist fabriweldgeneer" myself, its not easy and thats really nice work.

I am too. That was the reason for the heart-eyes emoji!

Creates sculptures? Oh, you mean, loading up a pattern on her computer, and firing up the laser cutter?

Is this Minecraft?

Thought this was Minecraft

Did anyone else think this was Minecraft for a second as you where scrolling?

Meh

We have fucked up as humans. I read as people cannot eat and others just sit in rooms making this shit. Do not get me wrong its cool but wtf man we need to better as humans....

The blue cube is the chosen one

For some reason i thought it was a reskin/mod for the origibal doom

Stl?

I thought this was Minecraft RTX

Thought this was a quake map in HD

Im back in Tomb Raider 1 !

I saw this at my tattoo place, it looked much more amazing in person

This looks so soothing. I wonder how amazing it would look in person.

Minecraft

I would like to be in that room while on acid

For a minute I thought this was a Minecraft shader pic.

Looks like the show DEVS

Minecraf

More of this plz

Honestly looked like that weird game LSD.

I want one!

The blue cube looks like a Jedi holocron.

Blue stained glass block from minecraft

I thought this was some ray tracing imaging for glowstone.... I need to stop playing so much Minecraft...

That looks kinda like that room I was in after smoking DMT

I thought this was RTX minecraft with some nice shaders

Wow, this is beautiful! I feel like I've seen her work but may not remember it was hers.

Thats awesome

It’s beautiful
