This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt-inspired generative artwork using SVG fundamentals. It creates a full-viewport SVG canvas via the DOM API and renders two sets of striped rectangles—horizontal and vertical—that are selectively revealed through custom SVG masks. Two masks (`circle-mask` and `circle-mask-2`) use black and white rectangles with a centered white or black circle to create a circular cutout effect. The code demonstrates programmatic SVG element creation, attribute setting, and mask application without any external libraries, relying purely on raw JavaScript and SVG namespaces.

Sol Lewitt

This example creates a generative black-and-white pattern inspired by Sol LeWitt’s geometric art. It uses raw SVG elements created via the W3C DOM API, including a circular mask and 100 horizontal rectangles, to show alternating stripes visible only within a central circle. The code dynamically sets the SVG dimensions to match the browser window and positions the circle at the viewport center. No external libraries are used; everything is built with plain JavaScript and SVG’s `mask` and `rect` elements.

SVG Fundamentals

This example demonstrates the visual impact of SVG masks, using them to selectively reveal or hide overlapping shapes. It creates a full-screen canvas filled with horizontal and vertical stripes by generating one hundred thin rectangles for each direction. A circular mask isolates a central area where the stripes remain visible, while a second, inverted mask produces a contrasting ring effect by revealing the vertical stripes outside the circle. The code builds the SVG document dynamically through the Document Object Model, creating elements like rectangles and masks using `createElementNS` and `setAttribute` within JavaScript.

SVG Fundamental - Sol Lewitt

This example generates an abstract, animated composition inspired by Sol LeWitt, built entirely with raw SVG and JavaScript. It creates two circular masks, each containing a circle whose radius animates over 15 seconds, and applies them to groups of rectangles that rotate continuously. The code uses the SVG `circle`, `rect`, `mask`, `animate`, and `animateTransform` elements to cycle colors between black and white and rotate the shapes 360 degrees. No external libraries are used; the visualization directly manipulates the DOM via `document.createElementNS` to construct the scene dynamically.

SVG Sol LeWitt vertical

This example generates an SVG visualization inspired by Sol LeWitt’s geometric wall drawings. It shows a grid of alternating horizontal and vertical black stripes that are visible only within a circular mask centered on the screen. The code uses the Document Object Model’s `createElementNS` method to construct SVG elements, including a mask containing a circle, and appends 48 horizontal and 48 vertical rectangles. The rectangles are clipped by the mask via the `url(#circle-mask)` reference, producing a circular cutout effect against a full-window backdrop.

Fork of SVG Fundamentals

This example demonstrates SVG masking by layering a grid of horizontal and vertical rectangles over a circular cutout. The rectangles are created dynamically using the DOM API `document.createElementNS` with the SVG namespace. Two complementary masks, `circle-mask` and `circle-mask-2`, alternate between white and black fills to control visibility, producing a striped pattern inside the circle while keeping the surrounding area solid. The code relies on raw SVG manipulation rather than a visualization library, with only the `d3-selection` API imported but not actively used.

Sol LeWitt

This example renders a generative composition inspired by Sol LeWitt using raw SVG creation via JavaScript. It constructs a full-screen SVG and uses two masks to create a circular cutout: one mask reveals vertical stripes outside the circle, while another reveals horizontal stripes inside it. The code manually creates SVG elements using the `document.createElementNS` API and sets attributes directly, without using any external libraries. The result is a static, geometric pattern of 100 vertical and 100 horizontal rectangular stripes that alternate based on their position relative to the central circle.

Sol Lewitt Reproduction SVG

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt-style geometric drawing using SVG, showing a grid of horizontal and vertical stripes that are masked to reveal a central circle. The visualization dynamically fills the browser window by setting the SVG width and height to the viewport dimensions. It constructs two SVG masks with white and black circles and rectangles, then renders 100 horizontal and 100 vertical stripe rectangles, each referencing a mask to clip the pattern. The code uses the DOM API `document.createElementNS` to build SVG elements programmatically with JavaScript.

HTML Starter

This example demonstrates a Sol LeWitt-inspired geometric composition rendered entirely in SVG. It shows a circular mask revealing a series of horizontal stripes across the full viewport. The code creates the mask using a white rectangle and a black circle, then draws 100 rectangles, each 20 pixels apart, applying the mask via the `url(#circle-mask)` reference. The implementation uses vanilla JavaScript DOM manipulation with `createElementNS` and `setAttribute`, avoiding any external libraries. The visualization is static, with the masked stripes forming the central visual effect against a clean, margin-free background.
