Jared Tarbell makes work that is evocative of Jessica Rosenkrantz and Jesse Louis-Rosenberg, but with another few levels of abstraction; they all use algorithms inspired by nature to achieve artistic forms, but Jared’s end results often look just as structured as the technology they were born out of.

What I find most interesting that while he co-founded Etsy, the handmade haven, his work is mostly about the code state. He considers code dead unless it’s being executed, and will not sell work.

While I appreciate the abstraction he is taking his forms to, I wish it would continue to abstract until it doesn’t look like the original inspiration at all anymore. While I love Jessia’s work, if everyone does picture-perfect representations of life, things will get boring.
