Treebeard: Portraits Of My Friends With Plants Growing From Their Heads

ADVERTISEMENT

I made these images to put part of my imagination in the portraits of my friends in common areas.

My first idea was to make a double exposition as we used to see, but when I started to blend them on Photoshop, I realized that I could be a bit more creative and realistic. So after many hours (and a bit more) here they are.

    ART IS DOING ITS JOB IF IT MAKES YOU FEEL. Not all art is supposed to be flowery. I swear, the comments on this site sometimes...

    I've always hated the idea of plants growing out of skin... These are cool and very real looking. But it gives me the heebie geebies.

    Interesting that the ones of the men are rather gruesome but the ones of the women are at least somewhat attractive - conscious decision or unconscious bias I wonder? Either way, except for the one of the fern lady I would not want to look at these a second time. I decided not to vote up or down because I feel art should not be judged by my personal reaction.

    Albeit creative, it is deeply disturbing, I think because our head is our identity. And also because we've see far too many strange sci-if movies.
