Antonio Mora - Artist Blog

Since the winter season is always a little slower, I decided to add artist blogs to my official blog every once in a while. I figured exposing others to more international artists can only be a positive thing. I hope you enjoy them!

​Antonio Mora wasn't always a photographer. He had an extensive career as a designer and art director before he moved into the photography field. His overall goal with his work is to disturb the conscience of the viewer.
One of the strongest aspects of his work is his use of blending. The transparency of the joining images allows the mind to accept the two images as one. Although not all of his images are in color, his use of subtle and vibrant colors can not be overlooked. The variety of hues and vibrancy allow the emotion of the models to come through the image to engage the viewer. 

I was drawn to his work because of his digital manipulation. I have multiple series surrounding digital manipulation and the merging of multiple images so it is interesting to see another photographer execute the same basic concept. His use of nature with his imagery was also interesting to me. The use of nature brings even more life to the images. I have never used my manipulated images in that way.
