Artist’sResearch:SUPERIMPOSED IMAGES:

Ho Ryan-Lee:Ho Ryan-Lee is a Korean artist who works with mixed

media to create layered images of posed models using

Photoshop to create the sense of movement and motion

He uses the final edited image to paint using oil paint on

canvas, focusing on the voyeuristic traits of the female

body

I particularly like the

idea of having a piece

which is classified as a

painting, but which

looks so similar to a

photograph that it is

known as photo-

realism.

Marc HermannMarc Hermann is a photographer and historian

In this piece he looked at historic crime scene photos from the New York Times archive to blend them with photographs of the same locations in today’s society

I like the idea of making an incident that happened in the past seem closer to the present than it seems through the use of layered imagery; bringing back both memories and situations“New York is constantly changing and

transforming, and tragedies that affected

individuals’ lives are forgotten. We may stand on

what was once the site of a horrific murder and not

even know it, simply because life goes on”
