twice removed from my face

I was drawn to Francis Baker’s photographs of the human form on dress pattern scraps. It’s a cleverly simple idea that has a haunting and expectant quality in the finished piece. I like the idea of printing on something with such a specific purpose, and exploiting that purpose and its imagery.

Her other mixed media works use photography as an integral part of of the whole.

Pinhole camera research: I found this site that has a lot of interesting images by various artists. I’m intrigued by the photos made by cameras with more than one lens. I like that cameras can act so completely differently than our eyes. I was originally going to make a stereographic camera, but, looking at all these, I think I’ll at least attempt something a little more dramatic.

I absolutely love this clock camera by Jochen Dietrich.
