Acrolith * Qualifies a statue whose head and extremities are made of noble material, such as marble or alabaster, while the body is made of a more common, perishable material.

​The images, seductive and disturbing, depict hybrid characters of uncertain nature. By manipulating the artificial intelligence of software usually used to enhance our appearance, I invite somewhere on the edge of the beautiful and the repulsive, the real and the virtual, the living and the dead. The characters in the series have become fictitious and experience the concept of beauty and perfection. The anguish appears when the brain struggles to discern the human from the humanoid. From the perfection escapes the monstrosity.
