These pieces by Mauricio Buitargo showcase a very unique approach to decorative art. These [Modern sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragmenti) are inventive and rich in color, and can easily compliment any contemporary setting.

Each piece is made with a great deal of craftsmanship. Each [wooden tile](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lost-cloth-project), called a 'pixoblok,' is individually hand-crafted out of beechwood, painted and then carefully assembled in a woodworking process. This technique allows the artist to create unique, abstract designs, [decorative patterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/decorative-wall-panels) and modern portraits that can make a great accent in any modern environment.

These pieces offer clients the option to custom order their very own unique piece with an image of a family member or pet. If you have a big anniversary or birthday coming up, the Buitrago wall art pieces would surely make a great gift.
