Pairing Up, Doubling Down

Seen from above on a pale ground: a soft, rounded, shell-like form with a deep slot through its center, its skin a pink and white lattice, a blue folded fragment at one side.
01 Species B, December 2020.
A long, low, cloud-like mass of fine translucent folds in grey and brown, stretched across a pale ground.
02 Folding Market.
A sharp-edged, crystalline canopy of grey and brown folds rising from a thin zigzag line on a pale ground.
03
A vertical view of a crumpled form in white, brown and blue, like folded paper, floating over a faint lattice on a pale ground.
04

Chrono-Morphology

Collage render of fragmented machine and gear forms in yellow and black on white, a pale spiral structure sweeping through the middle.
05
Render on a dark ground: a tower of yellow horizontal slats with magenta gear clusters and a domed top, like a machine pulled apart in layers.
06
Vertical collage on olive green: a tall white needle-like tower rising from clockwork gears, with magenta gears and a small airship above.
