Aubrey Nehring

New Growth is inspired by the pervading fractal nature of plant life, which explores the cycles of growth, decay, death, and regeneration. When plants are shown at the speed of human life, as in time lapse footage, a whole new perspective is gained. When seemingly random structures are symmetrically mirrored new patterns emerge as can be seen in architecture, mandalas or stained glass windows. The piece is accompanied by a subtle ambient soundtrack created by the artist. The intent is that this could have a therapeutic effect on viewers in the midst of the busy downtown street.
