The mesmerising effect of watching something disintegrate seems hard to recapture in wood. However, Taiwanese wood carver, Han Hsu-Tung has mastered the art of using traditional techniques to create the pixelated effect in his 3D sculptures. The modern phenomenon of pixelation, a concept born of the screen generation, isn’t something we normally associate with something as natural and tangible as wood. However, the artist hopes to represent the visual nature of mankind’s current obsession with electronic devices through his thought-provoking pieces. His main goal is to draw focus to on the direction of the human civilisation in general. When multiple pixels appear in his artwork, the artist is visually trying to depict the disintegration of life itself.  When Hsu-Tung’s father passed away ten years ago, he conceived the idea for using pixelation in his artwork. He began his experiments with recycled blocks of wood to carve out his sculptures. Though he encountered a few difficulties along the way, he is currently at a point where he is working on including motors to his sculptures in order to offer viewers a kinetic experience of his pixelated experimental art pieces.
