Inspired by the visual aesthetics of early video games, this work examines the nature of visual representation when greatly reduced in informational content, as is naturally the case in a low resolution, binary space.
Through reductionism, an image becomes a symbol, it’s meaning becomes less ambiguous and is read more semantically. In this work, the movement of a rudimentary shape is reduced to an arrangement of binary pixels and the succinctly communicated proportions between them, revealing a complex visual music of rhythm and harmony usually hidden from view.
The viewer intuits and actualizes a perfect and unreal geometry in the work, one that is not strictly presented, prompting reflection upon the distinction between what is sensed and what is interpreted.
