“I make pixelated works, both two- and three- dimensional, inspired by classic 1980s video games liked Zelda and Dragon Quest.”

While taking a walk through the Brooklyn photographs exhibit in BRIC I saw quite a few interesting pieces but this one jumped out at me the most I’d walk around but always end up coming right back to this one. What really draws me to this piece is the fact that pixelated words are being show and that really reminds me of video games especially the classics. I grew up playing video games and one day hope to design them so this piece was really cool to see.
