Chris O'Shea's 'A Study For Mirror' Captures Your Face Temporarily

— May 26, 2010 — Fashion
Although mirrors technically reflect your face, 'A Study For Mirror' is an art project that does slightly more than simply that. Capturing faces temporarily, it becomes a picture frame for the negative image--giving it a somewhat X-Ray look.

Conceived by Chris O'Shea in collaboration with London design firm Random International, the 'A Study For Mirror' art installation features a hidden camera that captures your image and then runs it through custom software on a standard PC.
