​"Advected Structure" is a moment in a progression between opposites.  It is an articulated blend between a variety of opposing qualities and an effort to visualize the thresholds between them. Some of these qualities are spherical/angular, fluid/solid, ordered/random, synthetic/natural, manufactured/hand-made.
When confronted with visual and conceptual ambiguities, the brain does interesting things. "Advected Structure" is intended as a puzzle for the unconscious mind. ​
