Diffraction patterns are created for the wavelengths of visible light, red is diffracted more than blue. Each pattern is a three-dimensional parametric curve created with mathematics software and code. The pattern for diffraction by a single slit forms an envelope of the pattern caused by interference of light emerging from different slits.
The diffraction grating would turn a beam of white sunlight into an overlay of patterns for different colors. Sunlight corresponds to a temperature of several thousand Kelvin, so I weighted the curves with Planck’s blackbody distribution.

I am creating digital artworks inspired by and based on physics.
(In case you read this in a language other than English, it is an automated translation. I recommend switching to English.)
elkement is crafting virtual sculptures with code - structures based on mathematical functions. Her art is based on and inspired by physics, engineering, and tech. Inspired by the aesthetics of vintage patent drawings and by Sir Roger Penrose’s handcrafted sketches, elkement is searching for the nexus of science and art.
Recurring motifs in elkement's digital art are diffraction patterns. Since early childhood, elkement had been fascinated by the pure spectral colors of the rainbow and by the physics underlying their creation. Forming structures from diffraction patterns that are both based on exact math and that resemble the patterns you actually see encapsulates the beauty of the phenomena as everybody can experience them, as well as the beauty of the underlying math.
elkement enjoys spotting the uncanny in the allegedly simple and mundane. Having created virtual three-dimensional structures with code, she is always searching for an unusual perspective to challenge preconceived notions. She often juxtaposes her visual art with her Found Poetry when she presents her art (at elkement.art).
elkement is a physicist by training who fondly remembers her high school classes in descriptive geometry and fine art.
This gallery profile was in March 2022. Profits for artworks created in 2022 go to Ukraine aid - to 'Cards for Ukraine' - a small, transparent organization helping Ukrainian refugees in Austria. In 2023, I am reorganizing things and taking most artworks "offline" (not for sale), at least temporarily.
