Thought-Provoking Photo Collages That Combine the Human Body with Nature

Share:

The figures that appear in Alexandra Bellissimo’s Simulations series could be interpreted as the opposite of cyborgs: Rather than part-human, part-machine, they’re people fused with elements of the natural world. An outcropping of rock sits on atop a man’s head covering his eyes, while a woman’s arm becomes a gnarled tree branch. Shot both in black-and-white and color, the photo collages are calming and unsettling at the same time, bringing a tinge of drama to the communion between humans and nature. Click through for some of our favorite images from the series, which we discovered via iGNANT, and visit Bellissimo’s website to see more.
