Pixels: Avatar, Ta Kao Pa

I spent a lot of the weekend creating the first of a body of work, based on a pixel idea we first prototyped on a wall (noted in below post). This work is a scaled down version with each pixel measuring 1 inch square, while the other work featured 3 inch pixels.

This is also the first full color work i have produced in almost 5 years. While the whole grid is made up of 1,728 pixels, it only required 51 colors of spray paint, some pixels being a combination of several shades. I'll be working on the next 10 over the following month, and probably posting a few as a clear articulation of my motivation for these pictures arrives at some kind of surface.
