Abstract
Digital technology has certainly given new creative possibilities to the graphic image, mainly as a result of the electronic and virtual condition of its medium. If we fully consider digital as technology, we can say that every image produced or mediated through computer is essentially digital. However, if we consider the digital as expression, we may observe that not all the images produced or mediated through computer express “digitality”. Based on the analysis of the “digital” and “graphic” concepts an argument will be developed that proposes an understanding of an alleged digital nature of the graphic image.
