John Stezaker Research

I tried observing John Stezaker's work and looking at the different styles he uses. His work is very intriguing because he layers two different photographs to make them line up. Many of his photos have a man with parts of a photograph of a woman overlaying (or the other way around) or he takes a photograph of humans and another image of nature or land to fit in with humans.






I tried my own experiment of a John Stezaker image by using a self-portrait photograph and an image from the internet of a woman with a face mask on. I used photoshop to layer the two photographs, lined them up, used the line tool to guide me and erased an area of the photograph of the woman.

I had the thought of the idea of using my photograph and adding a photograph of  my brother. Many people have said that we look similar, however I have never seen our similarity. I thought that this image that i edited made us look the same with many facial features and clothing line up.
