Jorge Charmorro

This artist manually manipulates photographs, changing images to become something new, or someone else. Here he has used pages from a book of images of statues, using a cut out of part of a portrait, this almost brings the statue to life and gives them a new meaning.
        



   

Charmorro also cuts out parts of the faces, paints on them and puts string on them. The portraits with the eyes and mouths missing almost show a lifelessness, and a depressing emotion.
