Pixelated



I could not decide on a typical superpower so I took a slightly different take on the assignment.  So much of what I do in terms of presenting my studio projects deals with broad ideas down small details or some some cases photoshop pixels.  Renderings and other imagery I have produced for in my undergraduate career have required the use of photoshop to nitpick details and pixels in order to properly convey a project thesis.  Taking this in mind, along with the fact that architecture consumes most of my life and "free time", I decided to experiment with the idea of pixelating myself into architecture.  The two images shown above are attempts at this process, one taking a inspiration from Andy Warhol and the other attempting to look like a comic book. If I had to relate this to the idea of a superpower, I guess I would say that in my world everything is pixelated and by being pixelated or dematerialized, I could use architectural buildings and monuments (such as the Bean in Chicago) to travel the world. It took me awhile to find the exact effect I was looking for but now that I have finished this one, I am interested in showing myself in other places around the world
