An intriguing way of
exploring the human face (and more!).
Part cut-up, part chance, part premeditation; rhythmical and
disconcerting,
this technique was developed from an intial "moment of revelation"
in the
sixties and a full portfolio produced in a rush in recent years.

Borin Van Loon: "It occurs to me that at
least one other, more famous, artist
has employed photography in a sampled, repeated, muti-angled manner to
explore
subjects: David Hockney. The distinct difference in approach is that
Hockney
uses the camera as a tool of investigation, then selects and
manipulates
the photographic prints to produce startling landscapes and portraits
which
spill over the surface. My own approach is based on found images which
suggest
juxtapositions and rhythms which allow the viewer to glimpse multiple
parts
of one image, often blended with one or more which become evident only
after
contemplation."
