Also means 'superrealism' or 'photorealism'; often used interchangeably with ハイパーリアリズム, though some distinguish hyperrealism as a more emotionally detached or exaggerated form.
Photorealism; closely related movement focusing on replicating photographs exactly. Hyperrealism may add narrative or emotional elements beyond pure photographic reproduction.
