Generative Art — Paolo Bianchini
The city holds what we choose to protect.
Urban systems, inclusion, and ecological balance — explored through code, repetition, and chance.
Urban systems, inclusion, and ecological balance — explored through code, repetition, and chance.
I work with code to create abstract visual systems. Algorithms, repetition, and variation shape each piece, leaving space for outcomes I do not fully control.
My work explores how digital processes influence perception, authorship, and choice. Simple rules generate complex forms, reflecting the tension between intention and unpredictability that defines contemporary technology.
This site presents an ongoing series of experiments. Each project invites you to pause, observe, and form your own interpretation.
Fifty works, hung across two floors of an imagined museum. Walk the halls, read the wall text, and find the doors between rooms — the same works, a different kind of attention.

A generative artist whose practice is rooted in programming and visual experimentation developed over many years — before code, acrylic on unconventional surfaces, digital illustration, and vector graphics.
A visual language built on elementary primitives — lines and circles. Through repetition, layering, and constrained randomness, these generate texture, rhythm, and spatial tension rather than figurative representation.
Action painting, particularly Jackson Pollock; Pablo Echaurren's graphic repetition and political engagement; Bice Lazzari's disciplined line and rhythm, which anticipates much of algorithmic abstraction.
Generative art is not defined by tools but by process — the artwork emerges from a set of rules that often matters more than the final image, shifting attention toward systems and constraints over time.
Each piece is generated from a single seed. The same seed reproduces the exact same result — what's preserved isn't a file of pixels, but the rule that produced them.
Geometry, curves, noise and flow fields, wallpaper tilings — a small procedural vocabulary, combined and recombined differently across every series.
Higher-level modules — architecture, characters, nature, objects, typography — built from those primitives into the recurring motifs across the volumes.
Scalable SVG, built on p5.js for randomness and SVG.js for precision — the same pipeline behind every piece in the gallery and the 3D space.
