''''Bearing in Mind 1'''' (1998) by Martina Lopez emphasizes a relatively realistic impression of pictorial space. The illusion is intentionally meant to not look perfect. [https://www.ithaca.edu/faculty/skopik Steven Skopik] notes that the scale and placement are fairly rational and that the viewer readily recognizes the image as an artistic construction. The figures resemble paper dolls, like cutouts, with sharp edges, mismatched lighting and shadows, color discontinuities, and a range of both obvious and subtle visual cues that signal the work’s artificiality. Such images are coherent to a point, but, as with paintings, viewers remain aware of their conventionalized nature.[{{Cite journal |last=Skopik|first=Steven|date=Autumn 2003|title=Digital Photography: Truth, Meaning, Aesthetics|url=https://static1.squarespace.com/static/538220a1e4b011aa8abfec1e/t/5399e0b9e4b053c5aa53db59/1402593465754/DIGITAL+ALLEGORY.pdf|journal=History of Photography|volume=]Vol 27.3|issue=27|pages=264–271|doi=10.1080/03087298.2003.10441252 |via=JSTOR}} |
