5 Buddhas is a generative visualization that arranges thousands of small rotated polygons in a five-by-five grid, with each cell repeating the same noisy, abstract pattern to form a larger symmetrical mosaic. The SVG is rendered with React, using nested array maps to create hundreds of semi-transparent triangles whose positions, sizes, and colors are randomly computed — producing a vibrant, kaleidoscopic effect. Overlaid at the center is a single orange Buddhist figure in profile, drawn from path data, which anchors the chaotic color field with a recognizable silhouette. The piece merges algorithmic noise with a sacred icon, creating a tension between chance and intention.
