Pixelations from broken bee digital scans (Unit 7)

This work practiced what i highlighted about Adam Lister's work in the sense of the extent of pixelation that i will control. Choosing how much familiar content to give away for it to be effectively curious. 

I used photoshop and paint to pixelate and compose the scans through different dimensions to see what effects they give. The biggest problem in evaluating and making decisions in which is more or less effective is the fact I've seen the original unpixelated scans and that it may be a different experience for viewers that haven't. Fortunately this is all contained in presentation because its my own decision to present or not to present the original scans along side in triptychs or however like I've discussed previously.

Also after watching a documentary about Damien Hirst he talked about colour squares and described that somehow when presented with certain dimensions such as 9x9 it seemed any choice of colour would work regardless of theory or rule.
