Love Child by Trisha Holt, a visual artist and recent graduate based in Detroit, Michigan, is a series of photographs that revolve around surreal performative sculptures. Each one involves models that has been wrapped in blown-up photographs of another person. Captured in everyday settings, Beautiful Decay writes, that it "creatively cross-breeds two iconic & artistic souls with one another." For instance, the images depict the imagined offspring of such pairings as Jock Sturges + Laurel Nakadate, Man Ray + Francesca Woodman and Guy Bourdin + Katy Grannan.
Echoing the similarly titled song by The Supremes, Love Child by Trisha Holt is full of raw emotions, strange situations and playful scenarios. Whether floating in a lake, crouching on a bed or standing in a forest, the shots will capture people's attention instantly.
