I draw your attention to Ann Hamilton's Face to Face photographs. She took these pictures by placing unexposed film frames in her mouth, then opening wide and staring at friends and family while her "mouth camera" got the shot. The results are slightly creepy portraits that echo the shape of the eye, with the subject's face as the pupil. I had the pleasure of attending a presentation by Hamilton here on campus a few weeks ago. Most of her artworks are installation pieces, like this crazy red peacock room, but I thought the mouth photos were something I should share with you all.
