Created by Paul Butler, the 'What’s Within' collage series centers around portraits of people who have actually been cut out of each photograph. The void space left is partly filled by another shot of the same scenery. The pieces, paired with the series title 'What’s Within,' really makes one question the idea of identity and self-discovery. Overall, this series of works is surely unique and creative, making the viewer thoroughly think about its meaning.
