First-Person Art

04newm_slide6.jpg


Look Into My Eyes is a series of digital photos by Micah Ganske that present the real world as it might be perceived in a video game. Or maybe video games as they may look in the real world. The images all show mundane first-person action, like smoking a cigarette, having a hot cup of coffee or shaving. The twist is that the image shows the hands hovering in front of the image, as they would in a game, sans camera.

The New York Times has a great walk through slideshow by the artist that explains how he photoshopped one of his pieces that show him shaving.

Look, Ma, Two Hands (but No Camera)
