In the duality of life, each mind perceives beauty differently. One person may even perceive deformity, whereas another is sensible of beauty.
You can still sense The Garden of Eden with the fragrance of its flowers but it has lost its sense of familiarity. The Garden metaphorically represents our minds and way of thinking in pairs of opposites. Chaos implies the existence of unpredictable or random behaviour but in most cases, it is associated with undesirable disorganisation or confusion. Fractal dimensions are derived from certain key features of fractals: self-similarity and irregularity. This fractal video art explores a chaotic paradise and how we descend into a dualistic world after the fall.
As you watch the video, you are taken to a world you have never been to before and yet resonate with places you have seen in nature that are still unfamiliar to you. Consequently, the video has a sense of uncanny, of knowing and not knowing, and of wanting to explore its surroundings. In it, a utopia is portrayed that might fall victim to internal glitches. I used 3D scanning of a flower bouquet to create this video art.

About us
Founded in 2018, Platform-101 emerged as a non-profit institution supporting young digital artists and establishing a foundation for digital art in Iran. In 2019, they introduced the "Manifesto of Iranian Glitch Art," championing black and white aesthetics in glitch art. Collaborating with cultural organizations, they hosted research-based performances and, in 2020, organized Iran's first Glitch group exhibition. They expanded into music collaboration, releasing an EP in noise. In 2021, "Glitch: Pixel Aesthetics" graced the Pejman Foundation. In 2022, their focus shifted to exploring Glitch in Fractal, underscoring Platform-101's ongoing commitment to pushing the boundaries of Glitch Art.

Platform 101 Pavilion – The Wrong Biennale
Platform 101 brings together 12 Iranian artists—six Gen Z voices alongside members of our collective—to explore the journey from micro to macro, from elemental forces to cosmic architectures. Water, fire, earth, wind, and spirit appear as reflections of the whole, where every drop and flame echo the rhythm of the universe. Through video, generative coding, and small integrations of AI processes, these works connect natural patterns and fractal geometries with the vast language of the cosmos. AI has mostly assisted in the musical rhythm of these creations, bringing the pieces to life. The pavilion reveals how unity emerges through cycles of chaos and order, part and whole.
Artists:
Amir Mazhari, Arash Masoom, Arezou Ramezani, Arya Mehr, Bahar Mohammadi Manesh, Mohammad Ali Famori, Naghme Jahani, Narges Astaraki, Nastaran Darabi, Reza Famori, Sara Yarandpour, Tata Sherafat
