Lost in the woods by Dr Martín Raskovsky Dr. Martín Raskovsky’s ‘Lost in the Woods’ portrays an enchanted forest – peaceful and untouched by the commotion of everyday city life. Colossal trees and verdant foliage is divided by a mystical trajectory that meanders through the wood in a spellbinding and intense shade of deep purple. Dr. Raskovsky creates an enticing illusion of depth in this entrancing woodland, which provokes a strong sense of mystery and intrigue. His skilled use of perspective and positioning of the vanishing point makes the pathway appear never ending, with an obscure culmination that suggests a distant uncharted world.
