Admittedly, a month ago, I did not know what a diptych was.  Where have I been, you might ask?  Well, right here, doing what I usually do.  For whatever reason this term never hit my radar screen and I didn’t know what I was missing!  Life is meant for learning, so some three weeks later, I have a better grasp of this form of art.

Thanks to the Female Photographers of Etsy group (about which I cannot say enough good things), I have joined their newest project called ‘Miss Match’.  Two or three photographers are paired together and given a theme to interpret as they see fit.  The resulting images are positioned into a dip or triptych and posted on the Miss Match blog, which can be found at www.missmatchproject.blogspot.com.

I was paired with a fabulously talented photographer, Cassie Beck, of Brighton, UK.   You can visit Cassie’s Etsy shop HERE.  She is fond of vintage and nostalgic images and her work is just that – reminiscent of days gone by.

Here is our first diptych for ‘Tiny”.  Ta da!

Cassie’s image is on the left, mine is on the right.

The Pedestrian Project consists of several performers wearing entirely black custom-made costumes modeled after the generic images of men, women, and children seen on public signs.

Created by New Yorker Artist/Costume Designer Yvette Helin, this idea is just Genius
