Fragmenting images into pixels—like nature into atoms—these works reveal the building blocks of perception and challenge how we reconstruct reality in the digital age.
Pixel Landscapes is an installation showcased in Wapping East london, that investigates digital pixel landscapes and interaction with viewers with their voice.
The work responds directly to the voices of its viewers: pixels and colours shift, extrude, and transform in real time, creating a dynamic topography shaped by sound. This interplay between human presence and digital image becomes both participatory and performative, revealing how perception is constructed at its most elemental level.
The installation extends into a series of prints, each generated by extracting pixel colours and their resolutions from the interactive video. By dissecting an image at its most granular scale, Pixel Landscapes invites viewers to reconsider their perception of nature and reality in an era where the digital and physical are increasingly intertwined. It proposes the digital not as an abstraction but as a new materiality—one that, like nature itself, can be broken down, analyzed, and reassembled into unexpected forms.

Pixel Landscape Visions is a series of digital artworks created using Processing (Java), a tool that allows the artist to decode the very essence of a digital image from its origin. By breaking down images into pixels—just as nature is composed of atoms—these works explore the fundamental building blocks of perception, questioning the way we interpret and construct reality in the digital age.
Graphically inspired by English Romanticism, particularly Constable’s Skies, these pieces evoke the grand, atmospheric landscapes of the past while translating them through a computational lens. The juxtaposition of traditional aesthetic influences with pixel-based deconstruction creates a striking contrast, provoking reflection on how digital technologies shape and mediate our understanding of the world.
