Monumental Work • Private Collection

One of the first works in which PixelArt transforms the pixel into a mechanism of concealment rather than representation.

Self-Censorship explores the relationship between desire, technology, and visual mediation. Built pixel by pixel using thousands of Venetian glass tesserae, the work obscures an intimate scene between two women, replacing direct visibility with a coded image that exists between abstraction and recognition.

From a distance, the composition dissolves into a field of color and fragmented forms. Through the lens of a smartphone camera, however, the image reassembles itself, revealing what was previously hidden. The viewer becomes an active participant in the act of decoding, exposing the increasingly technological nature of contemporary perception.

Created at monumental scale, the work extends the artist’s ongoing investigation into how digital systems shape the way we consume, censor, desire, and interpret images. Rather than hiding the subject, the pixel becomes the very structure through which access is negotiated.

Held in a private collection, Self-Censorship remains a key work within the development of the artist’s interactive and perceptual language.

Available for commissioned works and large-scale projects based on this visual system.
