It was a joy to explore and immerse ourselves in the galleries and to see the wonderful worlds this diverse and creative community produced.
All of the Stikipixels were thoroughly impressed with the standard, scope and ambition of the galleries, well done to all those who built one.
While everyone's a winner in our eyes, we chose the following 10 winners for the June 2022 competition - in no particular order:
4swift2 by swift2
This gallery was more in the FX heavy vein but is expertly constructed by someone who knows how to build in a labyrinth style.
It has a great use of light and reflective surfaces that make it very photogenic.
Basalt Black Gallery by juliencfernandez
We felt this was the perfect example of a 'small but perfectly formed' gallery and that it showed an obvious ability to build well using the assets and it didn't feel overly cluttered and demonstrated a good use of space, colour form etc
Can Fla by flanagan
We were impressed with this gallery because it is built around a central hub and has many impressive architectural flourishes - We think the builder made good use of light and reflective surfaces and glass again to create a feeling of ambience, and it has very much a ‘chill’ and look at art vibe
Inside my head by gutfeeling
We liked the abstract and geometric forms of this gallery, it almost has the feeling of a mad scientist lab feeling which we appreciated a lot and it is certainly interesting as an unconventional gallery space with unique forms and details.
Megaron by krfn
This medium sized gallery was very consistent in style - it is a solid portrayal of a classical style of gallery with some nice touches such as a homely room with a fireplace.
Observatory by helioworld
We found this gallery to have an interesting well formed layout, and again it also explored a science lab type theme effectively
The End of the World as we know it by Shan Show
This gallery impressed us all with its complexity and scope.
We liked how it uniquely mixed organic forms with a classical architecture style in an interesting and engaging way.
The Halls of Liminus by good mourning
A fantastic 'theme based' gallery - It starts off dark and bizarre and we all liked the idea of making a gallery exploring liminal spaces.
The Eternal Garden by Kaleidoscopicdragon
Another Thematic gallery - The Eternal Garden is a linear journey gallery which is heavily about evoking an experience or atmosphere for the player - the end of the gallery with the tree is especially impressive for photos as it uses minimal shapes for maximum effect.
The Great and Secret Gallery by experientia
This was a very funny surprise for us all and amused us a lot, the mosaic is also very well made and impressed us.
Prizes have already been given out with exception to art codes and extra gallery slots. We are working on assigning these as we speak. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if there are any issues or if you have any questions.
Well done to you all!
Keep on creating, keep on building,
Keep on Occupying White Walls!
