Is the digital reality just trying to simulate the physical?

A photogrammetry texture printed on a Silk cloth. Photogrammetry is a technique that uses several images to digitally recreate a spatial situation, translating this situation from a physical to a digital space.

The cloth envelops the terrain and gives it a new appearance, but parts of the terrain remain visible, peeking out here and there from under the cloth, revealing the wearer.

The low resolution creates an illusion of a digital object appearing in the physical space, which is reminiscent of an augmented reality experience. The texture does not correspond to the true essence of the wearer and a controversy arises that challenges our perception.
