The 2D/3D digital artist from Italy, Marco Zagara, is known for his use of Blender, a computer software used by artists around the world to create their digital pieces. Blender was historically used as a video game creation planform but has now refined to specialize in 3D still production. In Zagara’s piece titled #dayoff, he has managed to combine the dream and reality world into a mystical portrait of a character. While this piece plays with the viewer’s imagination, it maintains a sense of realism in its features, convincing the viewer that this is an actual photograph of their dreams.
