i guess that depends on what you write in your artist's statement

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...IE if you think its art...then it's art.

if this can be "art" then pretty much anything is fair game:

I remember somewheres seeing a program that seemed to use a huge displacement and texture map, as well as other things, to make scenery. I don't know if that's really what's going on, but that would be my first guess. http://www.uisoftware.com/Voyager/
