They try to get a very detailed representation of nature and, therefore, of the human body.As you can see behind me, some sculptures give the feeling that they are real people. The visitor is very confused. Am I dealing with a real body or a fake body? All the details are there. The contours, the textures, the hair and the nails, it is very disturbing." "Hyper-realistic artists still want to convey a message. So all these sculptures carry a certain message."
