Part of a vintage photo series I worked on from 2012-2013.
Photo of a woman wearing a big jacket outside in the snow. Collages scissors are depicted chopping off her head with drawn in red blood.
I worked with a vintage photo salesman to make artwork out of his collection which he would buy back from me each week.
Portrait of five people: two men in the back and three women in the front. The men's faces are covered by text that reads "him" and women's faces are covered by text that reads "his"
Here are what I consider my best representations of that series.
Portrait of a man, and a ripped face of a different man laid over the original portrait, appearing like the man is wearing the mask of another.
Image of a rocky mountain landscape, and a collaged couple leaning on one of the mountains.
Image of a rocky coast and two women at the beach under a parasol are collaged into the waves.
Photo of a man in a robe holding two lawn chairs and a cigarette walking away from a collaged explosion.
Portrait of a woman holding a photo of a man, looking longingly at the photo. There is silver glitter around the woman, and handwritten text that reads "All that glitters is not gold"
Photo of a 1950s car covered in snow in a neighborhood. A collaged person wiping dandruff on their shoulder is in the top left, making it look like the snow is dandruff.
Photo of a boy holding a hat on a beach and turning towards the ocean behind him. There is a huge fish jumping out of the water behind him.
Vintage photo of a man standing in front of a huge column. A collaged piano appears to be falling on him.
