Biography:
In his works, Nami combines pixel-art work. Oz initially studied electrical engineering with a specialization in image processing. These studies allowed him to understand the history of digital images and how they are displayed. Oz chose to combine his artistic skills with his education and publish a series of pixelated images in a style that sets him so apart. Each image is composed of hundreds to thousands of pixels and hundreds of colors that together create a work with a perfect level of finish. The work process begins with the selection of the trees and cutting continues with precise and sharp cutting, sanding, painting and gluing. His pictures bring the finest historical art in the history of art (Mona Lisa, Frida Kahlo, Van Gogh) with the understanding that our lives are becoming more and more confined and screens, and the pictures combine then and now, in the most accurate way one can dream.
