Fork of Fork of Sol LeWitt Reproduction

This generative art piece reproduces a Sol LeWitt-inspired geometric composition using SVG masks to create two distinct circular viewing windows. The artwork shows a grid of horizontal and vertical stripes, where horizontal bands appear within a central circle and vertical bands appear outside that circle, creating a striking contrast. Built with the Document Object Model and SVG API, the code generates 100 horizontal and 100 vertical rectangles, each masked individually to define the pattern’s boundaries. The masks—one with a black background and white circle, the other inverted—control the visibility of each stripe set, producing the final interlocking visual effect.

Fork of Sol LeWitt Reproduction

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt art piece using only JavaScript and the SVG API. A central circular mask reveals a grid of horizontal black lines in the center of the viewport, while a second inverted mask allows vertical black lines to appear only outside the same circle, creating a striking contrast. The code dynamically creates all SVG elements—including masks, rectangles, and circles—based on the browser window dimensions, generating 100 horizontal and 100 vertical stripes that intersect in a pattern defined by the two masks.
