Man of Many Faces

I’m playing with a smart phone app, Prisma. Here are various treatments of the same photo that I manipulated earlier (using MS Paint) to wash the background with a “psychedelic” memory; subsequent to the MS Paint manipulation, I used Prisma to radically alter the new image.The treatments say different things to me, as I’ve tried to explain with the captions.

Face of stone.

There is a crack in everything.

Melting like butter.

Emerging from a deep pool.

The dark side of losing face.

Imagine a face without features; it’s easy if you try.

mf18

Just a fuzzy memory.
