Feat. Photographer #9



My featured photographer for this week is Martine Roch, a woman from France. She is an unusual choice for featured photographer because she's not the typical photographer. What she does is takes multiple, seemingly random photos and mashes them together using some sort of photo manipulator. The result is neat and usually abnormal, but I find it impressive. Since I plan on going to art school for either the studio arts or graphic design, her works of art are an inspiration for the seamless photo manipulations that I hope to make sometime in my life. What Miss Roch does is take antique photos and manipulate them so they look brand new. She then takes her own professional animal photos and puts them together. The result is magical, a bit creepy, and yet still memorable. Her photos are copyrighted and I am not able to post them on this site but here is also a link to her Flickr Photostream so that you may check out her work.
