Anamorphic Portrait from Bernard Pras
French artist Bernard Pras created this anamorphic portrait of Malian actor Sotigui Kouyaté using items found around the installation site. Pras arranged items such as wood, articles of clothing, and more across the floor and a wall of a single room. When viewed from the precise angle where the camera is setup, the full portrait of the actor is revealed.
Close-up photographs, which show the detail of the arranged items, and a video chronicling the installation can be found in the full post. The video is in French, but it is mostly just film footage set to background music. The time-lapse showing the full anamorphic portrait coming together at the end of the video (starting at 4:21) is particularly fascinating.
