Italian photographer Maurizio Galimberti takes on portrait photography is quite unique. He uses multiple Polaroid images to construct a portrait. As if he tries to blend multiple dimensions into this flat, 2D, medium. A take on cubism perhaps. These famous faces are photographed multiple times from different angles. This way Maurizio creates wonderful collages that covers both time and space.

Some call him the M.C. Escher of photography. I’m talking about photographer and visual artist Jim Kazanjian. He constructs ‘Hyper-collages” as he calls it himself. These collages consists out of multiple images found on the internet. Some collages are made with a stunning 50 different photographs. He creates places that could come straight from a fairytale without even touching a camera. It seems that some photographers don’t let the reality stop their imagination of what can be ‘photographed’. Just like the absurd structures by Filip Dujardin, Jim Kazanjian manages to amaze and makes architectural photography the next subject when it comes to manipulating reality.
