Title:
Faxman

" Beauty and Uglyness"

I'll show, with my Fax-copy machine and the manipulations of the scanner, to create and mix new images with a model, found in magazines.

I clone faces and bodys, writting too, and it appaer new effect, new digital images,

like a DJ who mix and transform differents Musics, I use the technology to Create a new image and style.


Often I clone celebritys , and for me its a tribute to Mikael J. too use his face.

His face start black to finish white and cloned.

Beauty to uglyness.
