"Pencil Vs Camera" mixes drawing and photography, imagination and
reality. It’s a new visual concept invented and initiated by Ben Heine
in 2010. It's full of magic, illusion, poetry and surrealism. Ben
published his first "Pencil Vs Camera" image in April 2010 but the
series is the result of a long graphic exploration and a logic
consequence of his personal artistic development. Ben usually integrates
an inventive hand made drawing in front of a realistic background.
There are several methods to achieve the same effect. Ben’s hand is always clearly visible; it represents the
close connection between the viewer, the artist and the artwork. The
drawing is either in black and white on white paper or in color on black
paper, while the photo is often very colorful, this amplifies the
contrast between the two mediums.
