One of Verostko’s masterpieces is the “Hodos” program. This drawing/painting software fuses randomness and structure to create one-of-a-kind algorithmic art. “Hodos” means “path” or “road” in Greek—apt for his adventurous journey.

His work is a heady mix of math and the spiritual harmony chased by early modernists like Kandinsky and Mondrian, turning abstract structures into visual feasts
