Alma Haser

 Artist Alma Haser has created a series called "Cosmic Surgery" where she combines the traditional portraits with the art of origami to create unusual portraits that almost seem to come from another time and place in the universe. To create this effect, Haser photographs a person then prints multiple images of the subject's face, folding each image into a complicated origami structure. She then rephotographs the portrait with the origami placed on the persons face. The final photograph is both unsettling and intriguing, and I love the fact to the viewer they have to think about the image and can see the creativity and work gone into it. 

My work is somewhat similar as it hides the face and at the same time distraught's the features. I want to do this in my work and create something unusual.
