The artifice of nature doesnt exist anymore. Leonardos Gioconda "resembles" the painting of Leonardos Gioconda more than anything. And the most "similar" thing to the painting of Leonardos Gioconda is another painting, made by some modern artist, about that old Gioconda by Leonardo. Language is language. And Bugallo plays with this: he puts light into shadow. He calls fiction by its name. And he recognizes that art is so intimately linked to our general perception, that it is almost "nature".
