ART OF THE DAY


This is a cool photograph entitled, "It's Killing Me" by Anoushka Fisz

I really like the background of this photo as told on the Eyestorm gallery website: The stylized quality of the 'It's Killing Me' series is not down to complex digital manipulation, but traditional darkroom retouching techniques - although many of these processes are now performed on computer. Anoushka Fisz even relies on natural daylight for her pictures, and never uses artificial light in any of her shoots. The resulting photographs in this series are deeply enigmatic, and her first true self-portraits. When asked to describe why the series was called 'It's Killing Me', she explained: 'There's always something'.
