Carter Hodgkin’s “Infinite Orbits” takes inspiration from the concentric rings of Fulton Center’s architecture and the circulating paths of travelers in the subway system. Animations derived from computer coding depict abstract visualizations of energy in mesmerizing, colorful paths that conjure an alternate universe.

Carter Hodgkin fuses art, science and technology to explore a new language of abstraction. Approaching the modification of code as a drawing tool, she generates atomic particle collisions to create animated forms which visualize energy.
