Madonna Glitcha

The 4th in my series of transmutations of Leonardo's work. Based on "Madonna Litta", depicting the Virgin Mary breastfeeding baby Jesus. Traditionally attributed to Da Vinci, certainly coming at least from his school. A painting I love, especially the piercing eye of the child, the only detail that I kept intact.

My style involves replicating the original painting thousands of times, with almost as many variations, forming a microcosm which I try to keep in harmony with the macrocosm of the transfigured artwork.

After hundreds of iterations in which I use only the original artwork and nothing else, as it was paint or pixels, I get to a new artwork that is substantially different from the original and that I recognize as my own.

In this case I did something new. The microcosm was made by multiplying two images instead of one: the face of the mother and the face of the child, which can be appreciated in full resolution.
