what began as a playful premise in 2002 has developed into an internet sensation for digital artist gesichtermix, who remixes some of the world’s most famous faces into hybrid celebrity portraits. the digital artist seamlessly brings together two photographs of different actors, singers and political figures, and merges them into a single composite being. the careful manipulation of both images forms a flawless ‘new’ face that requires a keen eye to determine its original pair of portraits. for example, two justins — bieber and timberlake — create the ultimate crush of 90s and 2000s teens alike; natalie portman and scarlett johansson mold a stunning specimen with blonde hair and amber eyes; and political leaders david cameron and justin trudeau unite to form a new commonwealth creation. see some examples of gesichtermix’s work below, and follow the full archive of images on the artist’s instagram.
