Acrylic on Canvas

This panting is based on a media image of the climate change in Sub-Saharan Africa. My pixels mimic the visual language of digital media. However, where media uses pixelation to either shield or shame I repurpose it as a mode of reference and critique to reflect the anonymity and abstraction imposed by mass media. And moreover: pixels are anonymity but aren’t they as well like the countless facets of our world, the flood of informations from which we have to form the picture of a reality beyond our personal experience?
