Pixels are patterns waiting to happen.
@travess: Pixel Rugs
Opening November 13 at @GalerieMet in Berlin, Pixel Rugs brings @travess's generative patterns from screen to print to woven textile, exploring what changes when an image becomes an object.

We are excited to present Pixel Rugs, American artist @travess's first solo exhibition in Germany, bringing together digital works, process animations, UV prints, woven rugs, and a special edition of his monograph published by @VetroEditions. Curated by @kikanicolela and presented in collaboration with @objktcom, the exhibition opens on Friday, November 13, from 18:00 to 21:00, with the artist and curator present. Feel free to drop by if you’re in Berlin!
Travess Smalley has been developing Pixel Rugs since 2018–19, exploring the pixel as both a digital building block and a unit of pattern. Drawing on video game aesthetics, procedural generation, and the visual traditions of Appalachian quilts, Smalley uses Photoshop as a generative tool, layering, rotating, and transforming small grids to produce images that are at once systematic and unpredictable. Over the years, the project has grown into an evolving body of work, with individual pieces minted as NFTs on the Tezos blockchain, forming a digital record of its development.
Pixel Rugs brings together different embodiments of the project: digital works, process animations, prints, woven rugs, and Pixel Rugs, the monograph recently published by Vetro Editions. Each medium offers a different encounter with the image. Colours shift, patterns emerge, and the rigid pixel grid takes on new qualities in light, ink, paper, and wool. The animations reveal the process as a sequence of possibilities rather than a fixed result, making visible the experiments and unexpected turns behind each composition.
Moving between digital and physical forms, the works explore what happens when an image is translated from one material or system into another. Neither simply reproductions nor definitive versions, these variations reflect an ongoing process of discovery, offering different ways for the viewer to encounter the work.

Mariannenstrasse 33, 10999 Berlin
Curated by Kika Nicolela

Pixel Rugs explores how an image changes as it moves between digital and physical forms.
Colours shift, patterns emerge, and each medium reveals something different about the same underlying structure.
