1/2 portraits' by jesús gonzález
image © jesús gonzález


for his series '1/2', venezuelan artist jesús gonzález rodríguez creates unsettling portraits by collaging multiple photographs of individuals and 'cutting' out along their edges. each image is composed of a head-on and side view of the subject against a blank white wall, creating a nearly optical-illusion in which the portraits can appear momentarily normal until one's eyes fall upon an outlying characteristic.
