Platonov Pavel

Information sourced from- http://www.designboom.com/art/platonov-pavel/

The photographer known on flickr as platonov pavel has created a series of images which showcase his talent as a photographer and designer. the series depicts models adorned with unique creations which are sculpted around their heads, obscuring their facial features. these mask-like creations range from folded paper to large-scale constructions made using small pieces of wood. each one is a different material and arranged in such a way, as to complement the portrait. This photographers work from first view had me wishing I could make something like this the structures and obstruction of the face and how the pieces enclose the face is what I really find interesting about these pieces of work. I love the use of everyday material used and recycled to make pieces of art work that really captivate body modification along with the simplicity of the images just showcasing these objects.
