Men sprinters 1. (from the Sprinters series)

2024

This lenticular acrylic panel artwork depicts male sprinters in motion, part of a series exploring athletic movement and contemporary figure representation. The lenticular technology creates a dynamic visual effect that shifts perspective as the viewer's position changes, adding kinetic quality to the static image. Mounted on white acrylic, the work combines digital imaging with optical technology to create an engaging optical experience. The piece demonstrates the artist's interest in merging traditional figuration with modern technological processes.
