The Doorway

I saw a dollhouse door at the craft store and had to buy it. First I built a “wall” around the outside of it and photographed my fingers and face coming through. Looked nice but didn’t have the emotion I was looking for. I then painted a rectangle black, taped it to the inside of the door, and then taped the door to my own back. The side lighting really brings out texture in my back, but most of all I like how the black of the inner door feels like a portal going through my body. Definitely some inspiration from Jerry Uelsmann in this piece.
