What is lost and gained between non digital and digital pixelation ft. Adam Lister (Unit 7)

Adam Liste turns familiar classics and translates them using flat angular shapes. This work include the same control of pixelation that i will control. Choosing how much familiar content to give away for it to be effectively curious. This has also made me  think about pixelating without digital help and to understanding what is lost and gained from it. Something that is lost is accurate colour which was one reason behind using a scanner to get pressingly close to the death and fabric of the insects i use; changing that puts the artists hand and control of colour between the work, which in effect suggests that if i would to get between my work just a little bit why not just choose all of the colours myself.
