From the series 'Castings' Digitally adjusted photographs of details of plaster life casts of faces and hands creating illusory photographic surfaces.The images appear tactile and seductive at first glance, a closer inspection revealing disturbing small surface flaws, breaks and scratches.The ambiguous hyperreal surface created via layered photographic, cast and digital skin, disrupts anticipated relationships between photograph and subject.
