I recently finished a concept series called Censored: Look but don't See Me I worked with Portland model (fantastic human being) @divinelyshana35. She is also the concept designer of this series. WHAT I EXPERIMENTED WITH is overlaying a second photograph, digitally, in Photoshop. Once I had all the images of Shana done. I went to take a photo of my darkroom buds, against a white wall. I wanted to make it look like the men were reaching for her, without really and truly looking at her and getting to know her. In some images it looked more interesting to invert the exposure, so every other photo in the full series alternates this look. It is the same image of men throughout, then with different "states of being a person" as Shana is presented throughout the series. See for yourself....experimenting is KEY. I love it and wouldn't practice my discipline any other way. THIS: “Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art.” ― Andy Warhol Statement: <In all my various forms (whether I'm laughing, sad, smart as hell, angry, pretty or sexy) men may think they see me, but they never truly know me. I am never loved for who I am. In the end, I am CENSORED. Because I'm treated more like a show piece or an object. My thoughts, my speaking and my heart are irrelevant and I can only exist in a limited space in men's limited allowance.>This series delineates the lack of seeing, knowing, and truly understanding most men use when meeting and creating relationships with women. We shall not remain silent in becoming our full selves. (Nor, have we truly ever been.) We will not be CENSORED. ![]() HEY! Do you love black cats???
