Descriptions & Essays
PIXELSHADE (I & II)
The ‘PixelShades’ are part of a series of projects that were
developed for the occasion of showing with Ingo Maurer in Milan &
New York in 2006 and 2007. They are designed to print out any
digital information (images, graphics and text) with light on a
variety of light reactive surfaces. It can print out entire books
without repeating itself once, and does that in an unprecedented
360 Degrees. The prototype is currently on show at the Christopher
Henry Gallery in New York.
