Man Ray

Man Ray.

Man Ray He was a significant contributor to the Dada and Surrealist movements, although his ties to each were informal. He produced major works in a variety of media but considered himself a painter above all. 

He started making objects and developed unique mechanical and photographic methods of making images. For the 1918 version of Rope Dancer, he combined a spray-gun technique with a pen drawing.

I would take this image and change it slightly. I would only use one person and it would not be a woman. As I am already using a male in my shoot I think that its better to use a male even though I would not be fully re creating Man Rays image because he uses either one women or two. 

I do like the symmetry in this image though and I like how there is a shadow in the middle of the image.

This image above I think I will try to recreate this image as well, I think that when I do body art images that its not jut going to be pictures  legs, I want it to be of the face a well or instead and other pieces of the body with it.

When I look at this image it makes me want to know about why she is covering her lip. It portrays that she may be keeping a secret which does not wish to be said. This may also mean that she's covering something up.

The image below as well I particularly like the shade in between the white and the body. I love the composition of it because it gives it shape and shows the curves of the human body, I could try and re create this image even though it looks quite hard but I will try and give it a go.

I really like how the body is in the corner of the image. It goes around the corner and up the side. Instead of a normal picture where it is based in the middle, its like it gives it a border but on the inside.

When I look at this image it makes me think that it coud be used in a horror film. You expect it to be on the wall as the shadow reminds me of the grudge where you ave the person and then you have this gaping shadow afterwards which I actually love, this makes me feel sad, a little scared and quite timid.
