About this work

This photo shows a jumble of movie star faces floating in a dark space. The faces look like they’re melting into each other, not crisp or clear. It was made during COVID-19 lockdowns. The artist layered old Hollywood portraits to show how fame and fear mix in our minds. See how shadows blend faces together? Look up chiaroscuro to spot this trick.
