Fantastic! Did you try doing a group? I mean, you have excelled in creating one person. But creating a group would require a bit more time and energy and creativity, would pose a nice challenge! :)
Wonderful stuff once again!!

isn't it faked a bit?

Posted 9 months ago. ( permalink )

iri5 says:

There is no fake about it. No paint, no photoshop. Where ever there is black, you are seeing cassette tape. I spend many hours contouring the tape. And to Brandassi: I am familiar with Muniz's work. Incredibly talented man. Much respect for him. My favorite art book _Masters of Deception_ features his work. Absolutely brilliant : )
