Real Unreal

Real and Animated

No one knows what’s real anymore. Not online, not in a photo, not in a profile that might be a person or might be a prompt. These three collages push that uncertainty as far as it goes — real men and drawn men together in the same frame, the same light, the same Jupiter 3 and Blue moon overhead, with no tell for which is which at a glance. The real and the unreal. The true and the not true. That confusion isn’t a glitch in these pieces. It’s the subject.
