ARTECONTODO TIPO DE FIGURAS ANAMORFICAS

Does anyone know what an anamorphic figure is? The term anamorphosis derives from the Greek word meaning to transform. The earliest examples are found in Leonardo da Vinci's notes. It was considered a display of technical virtuosity. Anamorphic figures are distorted images that appear deformed or incomprehensible from most angles, but which acquire meaning, volume, and correct form when viewed from a specific perspective or through a curved mirror. It is a forced perspective technique that tricks the eye to create 3D illusions. Anamorphic art is that which can only be fully appreciated from a particular viewpoint. And the artist currently creating these spectacular anamorphic sculptures is Jonty Hurwitz, born in Johannesburg, South Africa. He studied Electrical Engineering. He is a genius at creating these spectacular works, in which a true intersection of art and technology is evident. This artist creates sculptures that can only be seen in their reflection. He is, in his own words, an archetype of the artist-scientist. He is recognized for the smallest human forms ever created using nanotechnology, a series of nano-sculptures created by the artist, the most outstanding being a work titled "Trust." This sculpture, representing a female human silhouette, set a Guinness World Record in 2015 as the smallest human sculpture in the world. The nano-sculpture "Trust" is remarkable for its extremely small size, measuring only 80x100x20 micrometers. This tiny sculpture is so small that it can rest on a human hair. The creation of "Trust" was made possible by the 3D micro-printing technique, which allowed the artists to sculpt with precision at a microscopic level. "Trust" and other similar works by Hurwitz ("Intensity" and "Cupid and Psyche") were created using a "digital clay" that is assembled layer by layer with a laser, allowing for nanoscale precision. Here is the love of his life, Dr. Yifat Davidoff. They were born on the same day, year, and hour; they are cosmic twins. They fell in love as teenagers—Jonty from Johannesburg and Yifat from Jerusalem. Together they have a studio where, while collaborating with Hurwitz, she pioneers the fusion of artistic innovation and cutting-edge technology. Their work transforms abstract mathematical concepts into human-centered, emotional narratives that push the boundaries of artistic perception. It is not just a creative studio, but a dynamic hub that effortlessly merges the realms of art and science. Jonty Hurwitz has worked in the field of visual arts and computer data visualization for two decades. He has won more than eighteen awards for technology and innovation. He is widely associated with the current resurgence of anamorphosis, and images of his mathematically generated sculptures have gone viral online. Jonty Hurwitz is a visionary sculptor and master of illusion, pushing the boundaries of art with his mind-bending creations. Recognized for his groundbreaking anamorphic sculptures, Hurwitz's work challenges conventional perception, playing with light, perspective, and space to create astonishing optical illusions. His innovative sculptures have received international acclaim, captivating audiences and redefining the possibilities of artistic expression. For mirror anamorphosis, concentric circles and radial lines are drawn towards a focal point to ensure perfect cylindrical reflection. To create the anamorphic sculptures, aJonty first scans the models using 200 cameras and then 3D prints the sculpture. The sculpture is then cast and given patinas and finishes, demonstrating the advanced technology used in creating these works of art. Many months of work and billions of calculations, an anamorphic algorithm, magnetism... create a three-dimensional object that is then used in software to generate new forms.
