Humans possess the visual capacity to perceive the world in three dimensions. Each of our eyes captures a slightly different image due to the separation of the nose, and our brain seamlessly reconstructs them, forming a three-dimensional image. This phenomenon is known as stereopsis.
The mystery of the power of our brain captivated me to represent this capacity through this self-portrait.
Diana Rubi is a fine art photographer and visual artist born in Cuba and currently living in the USA. She uses photo manipulation to create surreal scenarios that talk about emotions and dreams, as well as real and fictional stories, using mostly her body as a container of characters that embody these stories.
Her work presents visual poetry, which seeks to shape the thought, human fragility and its nature through surreal representations that are often an open question that makes you look more than once.
