As an engineer, I have always been especially fascinated by robotics. The idea that machines execute given tasks—and in doing so, create aesthetic forms according to defined parameters—has deeply impressed me.

“Tiles” is a self-developed method where my self-built robot draws a square or rectangle with a single movement. By repeating this movement, a whole “sea” of tiles emerges.

The fascinating part is that despite the robot’s precision, each individual tile is ultimately unique. Taken together, they form a distinctive structure with its own pattern and dynamics.

This is one of my early works, where I placed the paint directly onto the canvas and the strokes were executed by the robot afterwards

On a large scale, it quickly became apparent that the distribution of color didn’t follow my intentions

The first tests with continuous paint supply revealed its potential to create far more harmonious compositions than placing paint directly on the canvas/paper

Using the same code and the same color, I created a series to explore variation – each of the nine DIN A4 pieces became unique, composed of 980 tiles

I knew that scale matters, so I tried 51 x 66 cm – and it turned out beautifully
