Video making of a new HeLa piece

I made a giant HeLa piece, it's 70 x 70 in! This isn't a great shot of the whole thing but it's really hard to capture the whole thing...


 

Here's the making of the piece:




In each HeLa piece I feel that I'm exploring different ways of interpreting the cells. The lines are the skeleton of the cell. In this case I kept the lines separated by cell, instead of connecting the mass of cells together. The whole body of each cell either fades away of replicates the line pattern. I was interested in the result of an impression of rhythm throughout the whole painting, which gave it a nice sense of motion.

I am really happy with individual moments in the piece that are below, there is a lot of movement and.. a lot to look at.. at least for my eyes :)
