Ulric Collete, a graphic designer and photographer has put together a project that explores the genetic similarities between family members. Literally splitting their faces and putting them together allows an interesting look at two people as one. Some almost look identical and could pass as the same person and others are interestingly different. Ulric calls this series Genetic Portraits. Find more warped strangely similar faces below.

Twins: Alex & Sandrine, 20 Kinda creepy. Zoe Leonard, Army of the Dolls | Judith E. Stein, Writer and Curator. Art in America (February 2001): pp 100-103. In her youth, the Victorian heroine of Peter Carey’s 1988 novel Oscar and Lucinda appalls her frugal family by mutilating an expensive birthday doll.

Despairing of her own frizzy mane, the nine-year-old Lucinda treats her toy as a surrogate self. She yanks out its curly blonde locks and artlessly affixes horsehair snippets that more closely resemble her parents’ straight black tresses. When in 1999 artist Zoe Leonard came upon such real life playthings in tag sales and flea markets, she was struck by the physical evidence of wear and alterations which together were tantamount to autobiographies. These girlhood souvenirs pointed toward a psychosexual terrain worth surveying. Leonard ultimately amassed nearly 700 dolls in “played-with condition” – as the secondhand dealers describe them – for use as raw material in her art. Leonard’s grounded congregation staked a claim of kinship with Carl Andre’s floor based grids. Barry mcgee artwork. Barbara kruger. 11 Pencil Vs. Camera Images.

People Wire sculpture is a collaboration between graphic designer and illustrator Ayaka Ito and programmer Randy Church that features, to put it simply, snapshots of shredded people. Combining each of their respective creative expertises along with a shared admiration for Rachel Ducker’s tautly wired sculptures and the defiant Flash paintings of interactive designer Erik Natzke, the two discovered a way to create an interface that integrates 3D line work into photographic compositions.

Using applications like Flash and Photoshop, Ito and Church reconfigure images into interwoven portraits where the subject becomes part of the environment. Comprised of saturated strings entangled by what could have been a spontaneous breeze, each subject looks simultaneously smooth, surreal and spun. At the same time, the barely perceptible visages embedded in each image provokes a familiarity, giving the impression that we already knew what the subjects once looked like.

Photo: courtesy of Eli Klein Fine Art, © Liu Bolin Liu Bolin’s images invite a game akin to Where’s Waldo?. In some of the Chinese artist’s incredible photos, it’s clear where he is standing; in others, like the one above, it’s much harder to spot the outline of his body at all. It’s for this that Bolin has been called “The Invisible Man.” Liu Bolin: The invisible manIn today’s TED Talk, Bolin shares the meaning behind these images — that they are a way to examine the relationship between culture and its development, and to speak for those who are rendered invisible by the Chinese government, by consumer culture or simply by the circumstances of history.

“From the beginning, this series has a protesting, reflective and uncompromising spirit,” says Bolin. In this talk, Bolin shows us the very first image in the series, taken in November of 2005. Hiding in the City No. 92 — Temple of Heaven, 2010. Teatro alla Scala, 2010.
