Combinatrics



Mock up: Screenprints on paper, using nine shapes and 3 transparent colors to create a non-repeating pattern. The goal here is to derive a set of unique prints from a fixed set of shapes and colors. The shapes are triangles and polygons based on a 2 by 3 rectangle. all secondary colors are arrived at through overprinting.

This idea is leading me to examine combinatrics, the generation of permutations from a fixed set of conditions.
