“Breaking Point” is Eric Ayotte and Etan Ilfeld’s first collaboration, and explores the boundaries at which a painting is broken apart and what that signifies when thinking about ‘process painting’ with imagery surrounding the concept of a breakthrough in society. “Breaking Point” relates to riots, tear gas and general societal conflicts within a landscape, and references many of the global protests that have taken place within the contemporary mediascape. At any given point in society when equality or injustice reaches a certain point there is a universal language or action that occurs.Ilfeld and Ayotte incorporate Stephen Wolfram’s New Kind of Science methodology by testing aesthetic-algorithms and processing the images in Mathematica. This collaboration explores the meta and microcosmic synthesis of computer-creativity, mathematics, optics, art history and painting.
