Freaky Faceless Art

The Surrealist Luis Dourado 'Into Space' Series

The majority of Luis Dourado's work is outrageously inventive and kind of odd, with the Luis Dourado 'Into Space' series as no exception. This surreal series involves retro photographs with faces or eyes cut out and replaced.

Most of the images in the Luis Dourado 'Into Space' series show retro photographs pasted into nature, with the rest of the landscape imagery replacing a pair of eyes or an entire face. The result is wildly creative, kind of unsettling and completely fun.
