Fractal art rendered at 16K. Zoom into the detail, step inside the piece, or take one home as a gallery-grade print.
Every piece in this gallery is grown from mathematics — the same equations behind these four little stories.
Benoît Mandelbrot coins “fractal” — from the Latin fractus, “broken” — for shapes that stay rough and detailed no matter how far you zoom in.
The first plots of the Mandelbrot set reveal infinite detail pouring out of one tiny formula: z → z² + c. Mathematicians are still exploring its edge today.
Daniel White and Paul Nylander find the Mandelbulb — the 3D fractal these artworks descend from. FRAX3D ray-marches its relatives in real time, in your browser.
Coastlines, ferns, lightning, lungs, romanesco broccoli — nature builds with fractals too. That's why these mathematical shapes feel strangely alive.
