mark pernice + christian hanson: photo booth mask

for a self promotional project, designer mark pernice worked with sculptor christian hanson to produce this mask – based on a photo of pernice’s face, which was distorted in apple’s photo booth program.

‘using apple’s photo booth application as inspiration, the idea was to take the 2D image that it manipulated and create a tangible face in a real environment, then in turn bring it back into a 2D image. using photo booth on the mask itself may create some sort of paradoxal shift where i cease to exist.’ MP
