If you're aiming to make deeply personal and authentic artwork, perhaps nothing is more individual and expressive than a self-portrait.
Yoon Ji Seon's embroidered portraits blend fiber and photography. Much of work consists of self-portraits, with varying degrees of emotions, abstraction, and detail. Her "Rag Face" series goes back to 2006, when she started experimenting with these mixed-media pieces.
Discarded photographs from yesteryear are given new life in the photographic project ‘Single Image Processing’ by Japanese artist, Kensuke Koike. In the stacks of weathered old photographs, worn albums and bundles of vintage postcards so often found at flea markets, Koike finds inspiration for a different kind of photographic practice. Using a scalpel, Koike meticulously crafts […]
Since its inception, Hollywood has shown us an image of unattainable youth and glamour, though quite frankly, French collage artist Matthieu Bourel doesn't seem too impressed. Whether in his hand-cut collages or entrancing animated GIFs, Bourel deconstructs images of models and actors of a bygone era. He splices divas' head shots with anatomical diagrams, peeling away what looks like layers of skin to reveal veins and eyeballs. In other works, faces come off like masks only to reveal more removable faces underneath. Bourel's bizarre and slightly morbid work points to the illusions of the entertainment industry. He makes his viewers cognizant of the absurdity of our celebrity-obsessed culture through his strange sense of humor.

I’m beginning to figure ways to control and manipulate the honey in my Strata portraits. I’m now using a mirror for my honey images, while I still use a large sheet of glass for the oil shots. Rather than cleaning off the mirror between shoots, I leave it laying flat, allowing the honey to settle
Cesar Biojo can paint with a pristine, realist perfection, but he refuses to make his paintings that simple. His canvases are marked by physical, aggressive marks. One can imagine Biojo shading the faces and limbs of his subjects with delicate brushstrokes and then going back to destroy his work, smearing the beige-colored paint to turn the portrait into something more. His paintings often focus on single subjects stripped from their context — there is no clothing or interior decor to provide clues as to who these people are. But this information would only be superfluous. Biojo's work shines through its ability to create tension and intrigue through dabs of peach, salmon and brown shades of oil paint, illustrating emotional turmoil through these abstract marks.

Chilean artist Jose Romussi creates intricate collages using embroidery. In his latest series ‘#Anti-Serie‘, the images feature fashion portraits that look like they’ve been scribbled over with markers at first glance. In reality, the words and drawings were woven in with multi-colored thread, which is Romussi’s prefered medium “to merge different time spaces”. In a […]

Not all art has an apparent purpose in the beginning, but in the end, it turns out to be very relevant. Volker Hermes has been creating a series of "Hidden Portraits" for over 10 years, where he manipulates photos of classical paintings tangled up in head accessories. It seemed like an innocent play of imagination until it became very poignant when the COVID-19 pandemic took place.
With the invent of GPS technology and map applications, paper maps are waning in use - but they are an essential material to English artist Ed Fairburn, who uses them as the canvas of his detailed portraits. Fairburn's work is an imaginative incorporation of the human form and topography. He's used maps of places from all over the world. The winding layouts of streets and rivers are enhanced to form wrinkles, veins, and other features of his subjects' faces.

Heavily influenced by the Dada aesthetic, Lola Dupré’s surreal collages bend and expand the traditional view of both object and human form. With a wide focus of subject matter it seems as if no human or animal can escape Dupré’s focus, her subjects ranging from famous presidents and celebrities to giraffes and hound dogs. Each work includes some sort of distortion to the original image, either by the artist multiplying limbs or elongating torsos and faces into unnatural poses. More
