My own interpretation of pixel art was inspired by Cézanne, for his pioneering research into the essence of form that anticipated/inspired modernism.

As in my transmutations series, also in my pixel art I make use of just one picture. The difference is that the picture is repeated thousands of times, with hundreds of variations/glitches, and spread upon its most essential pixel form where lines are gaps, dark holes.

This is based on a portrait Cézanne made of his uncle Dominique in 1866 and is the last of 3 artworks through which I homage the French master.
