jefta: humansculpture

'humansculpture' by jefta


french artist jefta has created a project which melds his interest in photography, painting and digital art in 'humansculpture'.
he developed a processing program that allows, from a flux video, one to visualize the body in movement from different angles
then condensed from a set of images into a single, multi-layered print. the shapes formed by human action creates a sculptural
effect in the final image. 'humansculpture' is a study into the invisible impressions the movement the human body has upon
the space in which it resides.

'in between body restrictions and movements urge the body is used as a brush, using itself as a way of managing complex shapes.
the moving objects are multiplied. tilling the space with images between the emptiness and the fullness, the human sculpture takes
more and more space. the repetition of the different people that intertwine and overlap allows to perceive the path of the fix
movements in the space.' -jefta
