These pictures explore the possibilities of creating individualized interpretations of the subjects with each viewer who looks at the work. By altering the sitters genuine appearances to the extent of contradictory skin tones, the complete and partial loss of facial features, and their out of focus qualities, the observer is given the opportunity
to make their own assumptions. This project explores the psychology between human relationships and interactions juxtaposed with the notion that we are truly unidentifiable.
