A complex where the creator of any representation of something else (Statue, drawing, etc.) believes one of their specific creations, or all of them, are so realistic that it must fulfill the role of the object it is representing. This is in reference to Michelangelo's famous episode where he carvead a statue so similar to a real person he god mad when it didn't answer him, he punched it and broke part of its knee.
