Human is a tripartite oeuvre, composed of an image of Mars, a digital collage and a painting.
An appropriation of a satellite image captured by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter HiRISE experiment.
A digital image of a distant world, on which we will soon leave our footprint.
An alien landscape captured by human curiosity.
How far will our curiosity take us?
Inspired by these Martian dunes, I decided to compose a digital collage in their likeness.
To later translate that image into a painting, unifying by the hands of human, the digital image to the iron oxide of the pigment, the same oxide that gives the Martian surface its color.
Human is a work of reflection, an anthropomorphic landscape originated from a question
How many more worlds will we mold in our image?
