What: Chema Méndez is a Canary Islands-based artist who has been creating digital collages since 2009, combining public domain classical paintings with contemporary tools including AI, 3D rendering, and photography. His work draws influence from M.C. Escher's precision and Magritte's surrealism, with recent collections exploring themes of perception, memory, and human experience. In 2024, he shifted from spending weeks on perfectionist pieces to daily experimental creation.
