Lou Escobar, Photographer, Vancouver

Description

This striking portrait photograph by Lou Escobar features a woman holding up a printed photograph of her own face directly in front of her. The printed portrait is dramatically altered with a charred, burned-out hole through the paper revealing the eye area behind it. The subject has slicked-back dark hair and wears a white-collared shirt underneath a dark textured garment. The background is a neutral, seamless studio gradient, emphasizing the surreal, conceptual framing of the physical paper print held in the subject's hands.
