Portrait

Art is frequently somehow perceived as a way of detachment from reality, but there are genres like Hyperrealism that question the relationship between illusion and reality. This artwork seeks to reveal character as well as superficial life-like appearance through the facial expression so that it generates an emotional impact, capturing the spirit of the subject. The work presented is not only to portray an image in an ultra-realistic manner with intricate details, but it is also aimed to deceive the eye 'trompe-l'œil' of the viewer. It creates a physical presence through subtle lighting in pencil, where the attention to detail enhances our vision and understanding of the world. The focus on elderly is chosen because they have a way of making you take a step back from your own life and validate what is meaningful. It is hard to remember the exact facial structure of a loved one. In an art world that is becoming more technically advanced, traditional art meets technology where a projector is used directly onto the artwork, featuring a monochromatic high-speed video to play with our senses. The drawing itself merged with digital imagery is an attempt to immortalize his features forever.
