lady In technical terms “Seeing” is a complete over painting of the underlying photo, pure handwork at the PC, with the exception of the pair of glasses and the eye part. It is obvious that the part with the spectacles and the eye have been reworked too with a slight blue grayish coloring and a modified viewing direction. I wanted to turn her view towards her inner self in order to accomplish something similar to “Man Made”, though with quite different means: I wanted to preserve the personality, the presence of someone surpassing every standard ideal of beauty with a very self-confident look, giving a wonderful smile. Transforming this portrait in a radical transposition that keeps the power of her smile was the goal. Making her kind of a being from outer space combined with an introspective smile showing the greatest self-certainty adds up to the same attitude and personality, though in utter disassociation of the original. These reflections are as always in hindsight, interpreting my seemingly targeted, but in fact completely unplanned acting.
