Based in Tofino, BC, Canada, the artist fortyonehundred, aka Lizzie Snow, has perfected the art of intricate ink work. Her artwork is inspired by nature - specifically fractals. Fractal patterns are found within in our lungs, brains, leaves, snowflakes and thousands of places in the natural World. The mandala shape we have become so familiar with is a circular, intricate orb of organized chaos - or - fractal patterning.
We first found Lizzie online and were captured by her fascinating use of clean line and shape which entertainment the eyes for hours. Her work encourages people to engage with reality and a sense of ‘now’ - something we all need!
