This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using D3.js version 7.8.5, generating horizontal and vertical striped rectangles that form a grid pattern. A circular mask, created with SVG `mask` elements and inverted using a second mask, crops the intersecting lines to create a distinctive circular window in the center of the canvas. The code constructs the SVG and masks programmatically via the DOM API, appending 100 alternating horizontal and vertical rects. The visualization fills the entire browser viewport, using `window.innerWidth` and `window.innerHeight` to set the canvas dimensions.

SOL Lewitt with D3

This example recreates Sol LeWitt’s geometric wall drawings using D3.js version 7.8.5. It displays a grid of horizontal and vertical striped rectangles that form a circular mask pattern at the center of the screen, rendered as SVG. The code builds the visualization with `select`, `range`, and `.join('rect')`, layering two sets of rectangles and applying SVG `<mask>` elements to create the intersecting shapes.

Sol LeWitt Reproduction with D3

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using D3.js to generate a grid of horizontal and vertical lines. Ninety-nine horizontal rectangles and ninety-nine vertical rectangles are drawn across the full browser window, with two circular masks applied to reveal the lines only within intersecting circular regions, creating an overlapping geometric pattern. The code uses D3’s `select`, `range`, and `join` methods with the SVG renderer, and relies on the `mask` attribute to define the circular cutouts.

Sol LeWitt Reproduction with D3

This example recreates a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using D3.js, rendering a grid of horizontal and vertical rectangles in SVG. Two circular masks are applied to show only the overlapping region where the lines intersect. The code uses d3.select and d3.range to generate 100 bars in each direction, with the masks defined as SVG elements that hide or reveal portions of the grid. The artwork fills the entire browser window, displaying only the masked circular intersection.

Sol LeWitt reproduction with D3

This D3.js (v7) reproduction of Sol LeWitt’s Wall Drawing #370 uses SVG masks to create a circular viewing window. The code generates 100 horizontal and 100 vertical striped rectangles across the full canvas, with each set masked to reveal either a white circle on black or a black circle on white. The two masks are defined as `mask` and `mask2`, each containing a full-canvas rect and a 200-pixel-radius circle positioned at the center. The `select` and `range` APIs are used to construct the repeating rect elements via joins.

Full Sol LeWitt Reproduction with D3

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using D3.js, rendering 100 horizontal and 100 vertical stripes across the full browser window. It uses SVG masks to create alternating circular cutouts: the first mask (mask-1) reveals the grid in white with a black circle, while the second (mask-2) inverts the effect. The code employs D3’s `select`, `range`, `symbol`, and `symbols` APIs to generate the geometric composition. The final output is a generative pattern where the intersection of stripes and circular voids produces the artwork’s characteristic visual rhythm.

Sol LeWitt Reproduction with D3

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using D3.js, building an SVG scene with horizontal and vertical rectilinear bands. The code creates 100 horizontal stripes, each 10 pixels tall, and applies an SVG circular mask to reveal a circular cutout. A second complementary mask isolates a circular region for vertical stripes, creating an intersecting pattern. Rendered entirely through SVG elements, the piece uses D3’s `select` and chained `append`/`attr` methods for DOM construction, with data driven by a simple loop. The visualization fills the browser window, reflecting the code’s dependence on `window.innerWidth` and `window.innerHeight`.

Sol LeWitt Reproduction with D3

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using SVG masks and layered rectangles in D3 v7. It shows two sets of alternating horizontal and vertical stripes, each confined to a circular region in the center of the screen. The code uses `d3.select`, `d3.range`, and data joins to generate 100 rectangles per direction, while SVG `<mask>` elements with black-and-white circles define the visible circular areas. The rendering is fully SVG-based and responds to the full window size.

Sol LeWitt reproduction with d3

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using D3.js, rendering a grid of intersecting horizontal and vertical rectangles as SVG elements. The artwork shows a dense cross-hatch pattern that gradually disappears within a central circular region, creating a stark contrast between the outer textured area and the empty circle. The code generates 100 lines in each direction using `d3.range` and `selectAll(...).join('rect')`, then applies two SVG masks (`inner-mask` and `outer-mask`) to selectively reveal or hide the lines. The piece scales to the full browser window size.
