Framed Dimensions: 24.5" L x 17.5" H x 3" Depth

True artists know no boundaries. I’ve always been amazed by Chuck Close and his ability to create photorealistic paintings despite his prosopagnosia diagnosis. This face blindness made it extremely difficult for him to differentiate between faces and yet he used this impairment as an asset. Close created many of his works using a grid system, which inspired me to cut through this book at 90 degree angles. Multiple faces converse with each other, destroying the boundaries between us. I animate these angles in the NFT, but also wanted the faces to go in and out of recognition, with different light flairs popping up. I tried to imagine how Close would see his own works. This was the last piece I created for the Signature Series and feel that this design puts the vision of the entire collection into perspective.
