Merge
While I have been experimenting with merge, I have come across a lot of amazing photography work which I am impressed with. One which has really caught my eye is a Swedish photographer George Chamoun, he merged together two celebrities from two different era of movie making.
Jeannie comments on the photographs and states ' the result is an amazing display of eerie similarities between icons in our past and in our present for example, Scarlett Johansson's sexy features look uncanny familiar when framed by the original blonde bombshell, Marilyn Monroe, while Natalie Portman's innocent and pretty features are paired beautifully with Audrey Hepburn' classic gaze. The results are striking.
I believe with the quote above, the photographs are very striking and amazing, it is scary how a like some of the icons on from the past and present, but he has done an amazing job of producing merged images. Chamoun states that ' I chose to work with movie icons from two different eras. This project has been a lot about ideals, patterns and anatomy. I named the project Iconatomy from the words icon and anatomy.
With these photographs you can look at all day an never get bored of noticing how amazing they actually are.
