Hidden Identity...
More images i've found or had lying in my back catalogue of found images that hide or alter the face of the subject in the photo.



The image above is similar to an image i did late last year.
I really like the added meaning of hiding someones identity.
But i think if i was to do something similar, I'd edit the image after it was taken rather than have the model/subect wearing a mask.
More like the polaroids by Stefhany Yepes.

16:9 Photo Format...
Raccoooooon...
I've been listening to this wild band a lot lately.
Came across a band photo of them.
Really like the reoccurring rifle.

Stefhany Yepes...
Got in touch with this lovely lady on last.fm.
Saw that she had a blog and was super impressed with her work.
Particularly her Polaroid mixed media work...



Would like to do something similar with images.
As i think the most important feature in portraits is the face, and blanking this out or simplifying it takes and adds different meanings to the image/s.
Will explore...
I also really like the way she uses one page of a notebook spread for her drawings.
Really frames the drawing well.
Could work well with photos too.

Greatest Hits - 'Tacohat' Collaboration Exhibition...
West Space Gallery, Melbourne
Went along with a mate on the weekend to have a look at a group show at Westspace.
There were a few artists being exhibited but i was there to see a collaboration of visual artists who call themselves 'Greatest Hits'. They create video and installation pieces which are pretty wild.

I was lucky enough to be introduced to one member of GH, Simon. He was a cool dude who told me a bit out about how they produce their work and why.
'There is no escape from the hours and the days. Neither from tomorrow nor from yesterday because yesterday has deformed us, or been deformed by us... Yesterday is not a milestone that has been passed, but a daystone on the beaten track of the years, and irremediably part of us, within us heavy and dangerous. We are not merely more weary because of yesterday, we are other, no longer what we were before the calamity of yesterday.'
Some video pieces they have uploaded online...

Bill Viola 'Ocean Without A Shore' Exhibition...
Ground level, NGV St Kilda
Had a look at the Bill Viola video installation.
Really blew me away.
I loved the concept and the way it was presented.
"
Bill Viola’s Ocean without a shore, which takes its title from the Andalucian Sufi mystic Ibn Arabi (1165–1240), explores the threshold between life and death, or as the artist has stated, ‘the presence of the dead in our lives’. The installation is emblematic of Viola’s considered attention to human beings undergoing various states of transformation and renewal. In the installation, three video screens become surfaces for the manifestation of images of the dead attempting to re-enter our world. The physical threshold through which the figures pass is not a digital effect, but actually a ‘sheet’ of cascading water.
Ocean without a shore was originally installed in a 15th century chapel for the 52nd Venice Biennale in 2007 and directly incorporated the church’s internal architecture by using three existing stone alters as recesses for video screens. For the installation at NGV, the chapel is evoked conceptually through the creation of an intimate space built within an exhibition gallery."
