Pixel Art

Pixel Art

It has been 9 years now that I am away from what I should call home, moving from Germany to France and then to Belgium for settling in Montreal, Canada (for now). I am pretty sure it will not be the end of my journey, so for me it got very true Home is where the heart is and as long as my family is with me I will be fine where ever life will take me.

Home is where the heart is is only the first image of a series of Pixel quotes, proverbs and poetry.

Adobe Illustrator

Inspired by an anatomic heart, I wanted to depict this old proverb with a modern touch through pixelart.
The beautiful crocheted heart helped me envision how this can look like using pixels.

The lettering is hand made and uses cross stitching as a base.

After having worked on the heart I wanted to extend it into a series of different proverbs that feel connected to my live.
