On the one hand, there is the “Untitled” group, with some large-format motifs in 3D aesthetics, which are produced as videos, NFTs or using a UV-resistant printing process on photographic paper or aluminum. Each series of motifs is based on a basic body, a kind of planet, which is digitally depicted in three dimensions. In the further process, Mrugalla visualizes sections of this body. Algorithms and computing power are used to create a basically infinite interplay of contrasts, colors and movements - random and arbitrary - which can be used to produce countless representations and images. Mrugalla selects the most exciting and surprising ones. But which ones are they? When is enough enough and when is a motif complete? Artists and viewers alike are thrown back on fundamental questions of perception.
