Dimitris Ladopoulos is a Greek art director and visual designer who works with multiple disciplines and loves to learn new skills to improve his craft. His work focuses on the relationship between technology, arts and ethics.

One of his works uses the Houdini algorithm, referred to as treemapping, to translate the paintings based on selected parameters. The program calculates the density of information then divides, creating a pixelated effect that forms unique color tiles of different heights.

“The result is a mosaic of rectangles that highlight the subtle changes in the colour palette of the original. The density of the  information drives the number of subdivisions in any given area. One could say there is a similarity to the painters’ approach of using broader and finer strokes to achieve the end result,” he wrote on Behance.
