This work is inspired by a monochromatic serigraph titled 'META from Bach' by Hungarian-born French Op Art artist Victor Vasarely. Created in 1965, it features a dynamic composition of alternating black and white squares arranged in a grid. The title reflects Vasarely's fascination with the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, particularly the concept of counterpoint, where multiple melodic lines interweave to create a rich tapestry of sound. The repetitive geometric patterns and precise lines in 'META from Bach' echo the interplay of voices within a fugue, visually translating the complexity and harmony of Bach's music.

As a digital artist, I find myself deeply inspired by Vasarely's ability to evoke movement and depth through simple geometric forms. The underlying structures and patterns within his art serve as a constant source of inspiration for my own generative pieces. This reinterpretation of 'META from Bach' pays homage to Vasarely's brilliance by translating his counterpoint-inspired squares into a dynamic, algorithmic composition. By introducing elements of randomness and interactivity, I aim to capture the spirit of Vasarely's composition in a new and contemporary medium.

In keeping faithful to the OP Art genre this version is purely monochromatic. Please check out a companion effort (META-color) where I've added the dimension of color.
