Self Portraits More Influences

On tuesday we had a look at new techniques to represent comtemporary artists feelings using photo manipulation, These techniques were quite interesting causing optical illusion to provide a self portrait. Jose Luis Neto


Jose Luis Neto was a good example of it, using pictures of prisoners to create the illusion of a mask.

Lucas Samaras, Photo-Transformation,1973

Another artist was Lucas Samaras, using a unique technique with chemicals in a polaroid photograph, this technique was new to me and blew me away some of the effects in some artworks from this artist's portfolio.
