Pixel Abstracts:Series BB

Exhibition at A1 Lab Arts, June 22-24, 2018

In 2016, I was motivated to move in a different direction. So, I tried a new approach that verged on the abstract. I had just seen Bjork perform live and was mesmerized by the crystalline mask she wore on stage that shined like a nimbus under the stage lights. Using photos I found of her in this costume, I cropped the images, edited them, and processed them in my style of pixel art.

A few people at the show opening were able to recognize a face in any of the paintings. Only one person instantly recognized Bjork.
