Talented Polish photographer Jacek Narkielun is behind this menacing mannequin heads series. These captures feature decapitated mannequins, hanging around at the beach. In some of these captures, these heads are seen laying in the sand, while in others they are boxed up or tossed into the air.
Some of the mannequins in this series have unusual hair colors. One has hot pink locks. Other mannequins have bizarrely bright makeup on. The mannequin that is tossed into the air is sporting blue lipstick, while another is sporting blue eye shadow, bold blush and neon pink lipstick.
Mannequins can make people feel uneasy, because they look like real people. This series is extra eerie, because these impostors have been beheaded, thrown around and photographed.
