The Poster Stares Back
A Las Vegas wall, an oversized public image, and the strange feeling of being watched back.
Public images change the street around them.
A face on a wall can make a passerby feel small, staged, even watched. The photograph becomes a conversation between the person in the frame and the larger image behind them.
Sometimes the background refuses to stay background.
Images inside images can make a portrait feel layered and slightly strange. That kind of visual awareness is useful in editorial and personal branding photography, where context can say as much as expression.
