Hiroko Lancour was born in Japan and is now based in the United States. Her work revolves around the concept of chance while making use of her eastern and western modes of analysis. In this video she speaks about how she used chance operations to develop her Enso series from 2011.
The color, direction and staring point of the ensos are individually decided through a chance operation formula using three dice. This is further explained in the video link above.
"I wove this wall hanging based on the parameters that I set from the outcomes of dice throwing. The weaving patterns and the weft colors were determined by the sequence of numbers. I transformed random sequences into physical operations of the loom and visual experiences."
