Algorithm
An Algorithm is a set of instructions used to solve problems, perform specific tasks or make decisions.
With origins in mathematics, algorithms are now a crucial element of coding and Generative Art. Making changes to an algorithms will result in different outputs from a given input. More advanced algorithms use conditional decisions – 'automated reasoning' – to progress from intput to output. Determninistic algorithms will have a more controlled output, however some algorithms incorporate one or more randomised steps and as such have more unpredictable outcomes.

Guardian Lion pre-order Draw [template]
Emily Xie unpicks a rich tapestry of identity and heritage.In Guardian Lion, Xie finds new meanings for the Chinese 'foo dog' symbol. Traditionally found in pairs, the artist discovered her mother standing beside a single foo dog in an old photograph. Xie’s adaptation of this photograph explores the transformative power of traditional symbols in contemporary contexts. Her singular lion represents adaptation, evolution and the solitude of immigration. Xie utilises modern techniques such as digital collage, free-hand drawing and masking, enriched by algorithmic textures. The print process continues a textural dialogue between the past and present – gold foil is applied to the print as a nod towards traditional Chinese art, representing prosperity and fortune.

We collaborate with artists to create both limited editions and works on paper.
A limited edition is part of a unique series of pieces. Limited editions are fixed in quantity, meaning we will only ever produce a certain number.
Framing options vary for each piece and are listed on the individual artwork pages. All pieces are framed with 90% UV acrylic glass.
Yes, 100%. We work directly with our artists to create editions that accurately represent their body of work. Additionally, every artist personally reviews and approves their final editions.
Each edition comes with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity (COA) signed by the artist. Additionally every edition will be signed, marked, or numbered on the edition itself.
Works on paper and some originals don't come with a COA.
No—the copyright is not transferred to the purchaser of the edition.
All the ins and outs can be found on our orders and shipping page.
