“Pointer” is a digital artwork created by Kristoffer Zetterstrand in 2008. Belonging to the digital art movement with a figurative genre, it measures 41 by 41 centimeters.
The artwork presents a juxtaposition of different visual styles, blending pixel art reminiscent of early video games with a realistic depiction of a human hand. The background features a snowy landscape with trees and distant mountains. The central focus is a pixelated martial artist dressed in white, seemingly engaged in a combat stance. This figure is being prodded by a realistically rendered, oversized human hand, whose scale contrasts sharply with the small pixelated character. Together, these elements create a striking composition that juxtaposes digital and traditional art forms.
