At the beginning of the project I
was interested in movement of human body and how can I capture it on the
photograph. I used layering and putting photos on the other to show the places
where the human body was and where it is now. I was not sure if that’s the only
thing I want to do, so I tried different things such as adding text and trying
to play with words and photographs. It wasn’t very successful but it gave me
the idea of experiments. I started to focus more on the hands, because I found
them really interesting. I have done numerous photographs and edited them in
Photoshop, trying to achieve the best effect I can possibly get. After a while,
I started to look at work of Andre Kertesz, who was playing with distortion and
I found this really inspiring. I used Photoshop to make hands look weird and
different to their normal position and I tried to show something unusual with
it. As I was still into movement, I tried combining these things and that’s how
I came up to the idea of copying one part of image and pasting it few times. I
really like the finish effect, because the colours and editing works really
well with the distorted hands.
