Esta série de pinturas em acrílico tem por base imagens capturadas da tela do computador durante conversas de skype com amigos e familiares. As imagens foram feitas quando a câmera foi congelada devido à lentidão da conexão de internet. Cada imagem foi pintada numa tela de dimensões adaptadas de modo que as figuras fossem representadas em tamanho real.

This series of paintings is based on snapshots of frozen screens from Skype video conversations. The snapshots were taken every time that the screen got frozen due to a bad internet connection or to the slowness of my computer. Each image was painted onto a canvas which size is calculated so that the object is presented in life size scale.
