femme au mirroir

Femme au Mirroir, version 1

In the same way* as I made Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, this is Femme au Mirroir. 

* Recreate a Picasso painting using only the items I have at home (which can include my own self)

To then add another layer of process, I used Deepart to combine two image styles and input my photo collage with the Picasso painting with the two following results:

Les Demoiselles d'Avignon

You know what has happened here; probably don't need to say anything more, I'll just leave it there.

New information on www.hmrcollective.blogspot.co.uk about our forthcoming work in Cambridge as part of Art Language Location.

I hope the above link works, but if it doesn't the HMRC link on the side bar should. Here's an unrelated photo taken on a recent trip to Xativa, Spain.

Life: mise en abyme

               
An Instagram mise en abyme - the play between the thing within and the containing thing itself.
The mise en abyme is the infinite reflection between two mirrors, but similarly self consciously is the mise en scene...
 
    







Arnaud Desjardin's A Book on Books on Artists' Books is a catalogue of artists' books whilst being an artist's book (so should it be in A Book on Books on Artists' Books?). Or The Pitch/The Ticket episode of Seinfeld (a sitcom "about nothing") where George and Jerry pitch the idea of a sitcom "about nothing". I've heard that Inception, the Christopher Nolan film is another example but I couldn't watch more than the first ten minutes - sorry.

So anyway, back to infinity and self consciousness

How many reflective to and fro's of the mise en abyme does it take for it to bcome uncanny?

If I were to put a link to my Instagram accout here, you could go look at that page and then follow nother link back to here.
