A colourful world: the art of pixels!

A tribute to retro video games!

Januar 14th, 2016, 11:01 am

The „pixel“ is a square that, in the computer industry, when put together, defines a picture. They very much likely resemble a mosaic. It is also what distinguish a traditional picture from a vector one. If you zoom on a traditional picture, the pixels composing it will appear. This will not be the case with a vector image.

Pixel art is a form of aestheticism you will mostly find through video games. You may probably remember Mario or even Zelda in the late 80s where all the characters were only bunch of colored squares? Well, this is the same idea some nostalgic artists wanted to deliver here!

Not only will these gathered creations be digital but you will find that the pixel art may very well transformed itself into nice sculptures!
Now, be ready to dive into a colourful world!
