Erik Svetoft

Some of the portraits painted on acetate reminded me of Erik Svetoft's gruesome drawings where the human head or body are somewhere between biological diagrams and haunting creatures. This play on form is very interesting to me as the image below is still recognisable as a bust, yet has no human characteristics. It might be good to see how far away from the human form I can get in terms of shape or lack of detail for the image to still be read as a face.
