We as an artist today only read and look up to the images from the history and sometimes make artworks that narrate history in a way that it becomes more easier for the viewer to actually imagine what was happening around at that time, what were the conditions that surrounds people at that time....we the artists learn this technique from history itself..creating the history, by creating what is happening around us... This is what is being happening since the caves, the Egyptian times, the Romans, the West, and so and so.
In our times still artist narrate history in a very cleashe way by doing it the way it had been done again and again...
These images that use a very basic technique of cloning in Photoshop, but the way the artist has done is very creative manner.He merges old photographs from 1905 and merge them into photographs of current time, This makes the viewer to actually thing what was actually happening way back in that time. Because the very recent history told to us by our ansistors is that one we could imagine but could not actually live in those moments ..Here the artist make it so believable like its happening now...
I somehow connect it to our own religion of sub-continent, when the partition happened back in 1947, and when i saw these photos, stories came up striking my mind that my grand mother use to tell me while i was a child, and i uses to imagine what was happening at that time.
I really admire the artist to use such a basic digital medium to create these amazing pieces that helps us connect to our past and pay respect to what we have now...
