Artistic space #61 - Luca's amazing 3D makeup looks
The 3 dimensions Enel drawing or painting, was a contraption created in full artistic renaissance and was a novel way to convey the illusion of 3 dimensions on paper. and although it is no longer used in the art world still plays an important role in creating new expressions in art, this is the case of an Italian makeup artist called Luca Luce who has some fantastic creations in 3D makeup. let's see what it is about.
Although I don't like the 3D effect very much because I don't have a message, it's rather a good contraption that in a way has been used for the progress of certain sciences that have resorted to this artistic concept and be able to reveal their designs, as in civil or mechanical engineering.
When you look for the first time at the work of this Italian artist, you will be surprised, as if Luca Luce is 15 years old in the make-up industry, his works really manage to deceive the brain.
His career began as a designer, before dedicating himself full-time to makeup. In makeup, he found more inspiration so he continued down this path.
He only needs tones for the right skin, he usually uses popular cosmetic brands to realize his crazy optical illusions in 3 dimensions, the result is too realistic.
The only drawback of this type of art is that it is ephemeral, the only way to capture it in time and space, is through a video or photograph, so he uses his social networks to share each design he makes.
Just as painting abounds in styles and schools of thought, the world of tattooing is also enrolled by certain trends. While some drawings are constructed from the fantastic, others opt for realistic expressions or even photographic.
The case of the Italian Luca Luce is special. As a tattooist and make-up artist, he chose to capture images that resemble 3D in a work that gathers figures from the real world, but also fantasies and even iconic characters from popular culture.
His Instagram, where Luca hangs his works, shows a wide range of tattooed or illustrated characters, from butterflies or feathers drawn under a rigorous treatment of light and shadow, to jewels or characters from films such as Monsters Inc.
Luce's work is also closely related to illusionism. Through his social networks, the artist has shared some examples: apparently broken hands, superimposed figures, voids or holes where there are none. His favorite surface is the palm of the hand (on which he can draw himself). Here are some photographs of the work of Luca Luce.
With this artist we can notice a rebirth of the old optical illusion of three-dimensionality, many artists have managed to catapult with an art that has about 600 years of having been created in Italy, and who better than an Italian artist to put in the art world another way of representing it, in this case with his own body, although the hands are his preferred place.
His realism is surprising, it is very common that he is his model, sometimes he is hired by makeup brands or some private party to make these fascinating make-ups, although he is not specifically dedicated to making three-dimensional makeup, he is well known on the catwalks of Rome by different fashion designers with whom he works to design the makeup of some collections.
