Matthew Barney

Descending Order : The Cremaster Cycle.

1994-2002  ( Series I think)

This is actually my favorite photo, I seen so far in this class. What it seem like its a series, but this is the one that caught my eye out of the set. I like how the focal point, or the man is wearing a grey suit that matches the background and foreground. It reminds me like an optical illusion motif. It also looks futuristic and the lighting is awesome that brings out the dark.  What also looks cool is the reflection looking g like a mirror image or when someone takes a picture of someone by the water to see both views upside down and the opposite. I never seen his work, but I remember one time at the UNM Museum I seen and awesome photo art that said CREMASTER,  so his name appeal to me out of all the other artist. I’m glad, I look, because Matthew Barney has a lot of interesting and eccentric work.

Artist: Todd Hido

Title: Fall Creek in Winter

2009

Todd Hido thought that it was strange and a wonderful kind of freedom.  The snow silenced all sounds; the air was still, with no wind.  With this image the light was warm and decorated on the new snow. Hido was walking with his camera, his feet were numb, and his cheeks where frozen and hurt. The joints on his tripod were hard to move, and when he touched the tripod with his bare hands; the metal was, so cold it burned that introduce this bitter cold motif of photography.

Wes Naman-

Tape Art:

Photographs Show Terrifying Smashed-Face Effect

So forget special effects, and makeup; all you need is to turn a loyal friend into a monster by using little scotch tape like photographer Wes Naman. Naman used the unassuming office supply to transform human faces into bizarre flesh mashups, creating a unique series both amusing and looking scary.

Naman stumbled upon the technique while wrapping Christmas presents with his assistant when the two began toying with the sticky medium, deforming the shape of their faces to the point where they can’t be recognized.  When Naman started, as a side project it turned into a photographic adventure as Wes Naman took on by capturing his friends in truly silly manner.
