entry description
In these images, I looked for the metalanguage so much used by the surrealists. Through fine art techniques, instead of reproducing the human body with a charcoal drawing I made the drawing over a body and used the photograph as a visual record of it. The impression caused is the strangeness of not knowing whether if it is a photo or a drawing. The title, like those used by René Magritte, seeks to create this ambiguity as well. I wanted to transform the body into the art itself and create a representation of it through itself.about the photographer
