Further works from the middle period
Csuri continued to expand his artistic and technological tool box with texture mapping his paintings onto 3D objects. He embossed objects to give them a surface texture. He employed his fragmentation and unique color mix tools. Further, he created with his light and transparency tool and predominately employed ribbon tool where he “drew” in 3D. All of Csuri’s software is proprietary.

Light Series
“I’m interested in expressing an ethereal and meditative quality through reflection, light, transparency, and diffused color.” - Charles Csuri
Csuri creates shapes that emerge though varying degrees of transparency and lines in a complex layering of color and glowing light. See Light Series Animations.
