Coining the term ‘PixCell’ — a combination of ‘pixel’ (the smallest element of a digital image) and ‘cell’ (microscopic organic molecules) — Kohei Nawa meshes a virtual aesthetic with tangible forms. The silhouettes of the deer become unstable and dynamic as the viewer moves around the sculpture, and this elasticity of perception suggest a disjunction between visual perception and bodily experience in the internet age.
