Artist Research- Wes Newman


Wes Newman

The Photographer creates portraits of his friends using scotch tape to distort their features. He originally got the idea after applying tape to himself to test a lighting rig set-up. Wes quotes ‘My Assistant and I tried it on ourselves and we got a good laugh from it, so we decided to call up some friends, got plenty of vodka and scotch tape and made an evening out of it.’ He says he had so much fun doing it that he posted the pictures the next day and more people wanted to join in and be part of the series.
