Estelle Hanania is a very interesting contemporary artist. She works with folk art, costumes and masking to "create alternate realities. I work almost like a reortage photographer to five the feeling of realism in my images, so it emphasizes the contrast with the almost fantastic subjects I choose. I want to viewer to wonder what he is looking at: Is it real? Is it staged?"
I really like how her work incorporates the masks and costumes with her own body. She has a very unique style and blends together collage, costuming, performance and photography. I like the theatricality of her work and how she uses the nude.
