Close to paradise - Limited Edition of 1 Artwork by Begoña Lafuente

New Media: Ink, Digital, Manipulated on Aluminium, Glass.

Close to Paradise is a scannography. It is a composition with different scans of found organic objects,, and hand-painted digital manipulation.

I found in this medium a new way of discovering and showing the world around me. It is not a drawing, but it has something similar to the eyewitness sketches biologists from the Renaissance. It is not photography but it reproduces reality with such extraordinary precision that it becomes surreal. You get a different awareness of perspective and the shapes and textures come to life.

I enjoyed discovering its fractal world, the soul of nature in the foreground, I love its plasticity and that feeling of life within life.

The plexiglass finish technique brings back the image to a fossil-like feeling.
