Juan Álvarez Cebrián
Pixel Interior

2013

About the Item

The artwork depicts the architecture of a temple using a warm monochrome palette, which intensifies the contrast with the colorful motif within. In the center of the composition, an imposing arch from the Cathedral of Cuenca, Spain, has been radically transformed. The arch appears in monochrome tones, almost in black and white, which is not a random choice, but a strategy to highlight the central motif. Inside the arch, there are square mosaics reminiscent of pixels, saturated with vibrant colors, enriching the piece with a diverse palette. The artist reinterprets an architectural fragment to offer a fresh and personal vision, exploring a historical contrast between the classical and the modern. The traditional architecture engages in a dialogue with the pixels, a symbol of the digital era, highlighting the visual and cultural impact of the pixel in contemporary 21st-century imagery.
