My body, the 3D digital scan and back to an analogue format (oil on canvas portraits) starts to record and look at these transitions

As Leonardo da Vinci dissected the human body and recorded his findings in his notebooks this series of projects aim to dissect and record how space, time, form and consequent perception of reality is distorted by the characteristics of the media and the to and fro transition between analogue and digital realities. The distortions are structural and not imagined. The core aim of these projects is to provide a visual autopsy of digital entities.
