Statement

Anon Portraits

These are portraits created by superimposing the features of different people on top of each other using Photoshop. By superimposing multiple people and overlapping them so that the individual cannot be identified, an anonymous outline appears, and a new person is reflected. The portraits that emerge in this way have a unique expression and a nostalgic characteristic. I believe that this work pursues new possibilities for anonymous portraits, while also making people feel the diversity and importance of human identity.

Jury selection

It feels like I'm looking at a fine painting in a museum. The way the portraits are broken up is superb and shows the artist's keen sense of style. Applause!
