Scotland-based artist Lola Dupre is behind these fantastic photomontages (via manipulation of existing photographs, mostly portraits) to create entirely new work. At first glance, these kaleidoscopic images seem to be contorted to perfection that seems almost hard to believe. See them up close and you’ll see that there’s an intricate bond between the hand-glued pieces, each placed so carefully that it forms a new masterpiece.
The one above (topmost) is entitled Exploding Ingres, a 11.6 × 16.5 inches manipulation of an original painting by Ingres and will be available for sale very soon at her website. Lola has so generously shared her work in progress for us as well – thank you Lola!
I’m also enjoying the interview that she did on Viceland.
wooow 😮
wow, thought it looked great when I assumed it was done on photoshop, but handmade, WOW. Very Impressive.
I know! I actually thought that they were photoshop at first, but when I saw them up close — the word “genius” instantly came to mind!
Wow, really amazing! I wonder how long it takes her to make one?
These are awesome.
