Mark "Devo" Mothersbaugh has created a stunningly surreal series of manipulated antique photographs. Many of them are displayed in vintage daguerrotype frames. From the artist's statement:
"It was in the early 1900's that Rorschach and other psychiatrists developed hunches regarding symmetry and the internal workings of man. Humans, great pretenders to bi-lateral symmetry, are in actuality, closer to potatoes in their lack of precise symmetry. A close look reveals what is truly inside the people around us."
Mothersbaugh's Beautiful Mutants collection is currently touring galleries around the United States. Link [Boing Boing]
