Artist Research for Mon. Oct. 19th

Sean Fader is an artist I Jeff referred me to that I am now absolutely in love with. There is such a sense of humor with his pictures and I love it. The work of his I am most impressed by is his I WANT TO PUT YOU ON series. The whole concept of trying someone else's life on is very interesting to me and I have spent plenty of time thinking of what this would be like, but to see these thoughts visualize is amazing. Who hasn't wanted to be a kid again or be all grown up. Plus the sexual-ness of being in your lovers body is kind of a crazy idea. I am also very envious of his photoshoping ability, these images are seamlessly done. This series is very close visually to what I would like to do if I stay on full body and it is encouraging to see it done so well. I am also really interested in his GOOGLEGANGERS series. The idea of finding others who share your name is always intriguing and something I have wanted to do. I wish he had more than the two portraits up of the Sean Faders of the world though.
