"Masterpieces Bound for the Trash 🗑️" is a generative art piece that uniquely expresses the cycle of creation and consumption in daily life. By displaying a 3D-scanned garbage bag from my home in polygon form, and then extracting colors from it to display as randomly sized dots on a 2D layer, it reconstructs the 'garbage' generated from our lives using a simple algorithm.

Through creating generative art, I wanted to go beyond mere aesthetic exploration and offer insights into the issues of consumption patterns and waste generation in modern society. This is because garbage is something that people generate every day as they live their lives. The layers that are incidentally formed by cross-sections of the garbage bag are, from the perspective that they themselves are generative art, an attempt to find unexpected beauty lurking in the everyday.The layers incidentally formed by cross-sections of the garbage bag are, from the perspective that they themselves are generative art, an attempt to find unexpected beauty lurking in the everyday.

The title, which uses the contrasting concepts of 'masterpiece' and 'bound for the trash', ironically expresses the value of what we create daily and its short-lived fate. With this work, I aimed to encourage viewers to reconsider the relationship between living and consumption, creation and disposal, and to question the artistry hidden in the everyday and the meaning of creation in a materialistic society.
