These brilliant works of art from photographer Laetitia Bica play with reality in a way that is fun-filled, while sending an important message about beauty and plasticity in modern society.
Bica uses color, photo editing and settings that compliment and accent the nature of the photos to create these images. The series tells a story about the fine line between what is real and what is fake. The mirror images are particularly striking as they create an almost kaleidoscopic feel within the photo that is entrancing and hypnotizing to the viewer. The photo finishing is artful, conscious and thought provoking as it questions and stretches the conventions of what is beautiful through aesthetically alluring imagery.
Implications - Art that distorts familiar imagery into works that blur the lines between fantasy and reality is most appealing to consumers who look to artists to stretch the boundaries of their imaginations.
