About the artwork

An illusion. A transformation. A revelation. Magically coming to life through different vantage points are two distinctive portraits that exist on a singular canvas surface adorned with vertical ridges. Transformative and utterly astonishing, viewers are greeted with realistically rendered portraits of Steve Jobs and Elon Musk that mutually morph into one another. Testament to his mastery of kinetic portraits, life-like representation and grasp of optical illusions, Sergi presents a sharing platform for the contemplation of varied perspectives while simultaneously building common ground between two intellectual beings who own revolutionary businesses with immense contributions to mankind.

About the artist

Sergi Cadenas is a self-taught Spanish artist who began painting at the age of 30. Known for his innovative lenticular-style technique, he constructs large-scale canvases with vertical ridges, painting distinct portraits on either side. As viewers move around the work, one image seamlessly transforms into the other—an optical illusion that demands extraordinary precision and patience. Cadenas is currently dedicated to creating large-format portraits that explore identity, perception, and transformation. His works are held in international private collections and are also part of the Porrentruy Optical Art Museum (POPA) in Switzerland.
