Original artwork description:

"Pixel Mandela" is part of a series of portraits conceived to be the artistic representation of a peculiar brain skill, that of face recognition.
In addition to taking inspirationg from Seurat and Signac, fathers of Pointilism, this artwork is also inspired by Pixel Art.
When seen from afar (5-6 metres), the artwork appears as a normal portrait and you can notice the pixels only as you get closer.
The choice of depicting Nelson Mandela is dictated by the need to have a well-known character, and important icon that everyone recognizes.
The portrait will be sold with an MDF black frame, white passepartout (2,5) and a plexiglas panel.

Size without frame: 33 x 50 cm (13 x 19,7 in)
Size including frame: 62,4 x 45 x 1,3 cm (24,6 x 17,7 x 0,5 in)

Colours may vary because of the variable colour settings on monitors, laptops, smartphones and tablets.
