Dragon on a Snowflake is an interactive experience produced in collaboration with the Virtual Dream Center that showcases paintings from Jon Merritt’s Dragonblage series brought to life 3-dimensionally and animated in an ecosystem with other artworks and creatures drawn from the artist’s repertoire. Using video game development tools, this project attempts to investigate an underlying theme of his geometric art practice, the subterranean relationship between geometric art and the natural world.
