It is common to see paintings that look that photographs all the time and is great. But it is rare to find it the other way around. This is the work of Alexa Meade, where she paints on subjects and objects in a way that “optically compresses 3D space into a 2D plane when photographed”.
I find it incredibly contemporary and eye defeating.
