Reconstructed Portraiture
There are those who by profession, hobby, or faith, wear material to cover or protect their heads. Through casual observance we are unable to see the person under the guise. The Reconstructed Portraiture series is an exercise in providing a glimpse of who lies beneath by combining two vernacular portraits with and without the head covering. The act of hand cutting and weaving the two black and white photographic prints form a pixelated double exposure that will inevitably alter the face.

Reconstructed Portraiture – Warrior Culture
My reconstructed portraits are created with an interchange of vertical and horizontal strips hand cut from two portraits then woven together to form one image. Warrior Culture will exhibit this month at the Museum of Wisconsin Art‘s Annual Members’ Show this month.
