ARTIST REFERENCE -IDRIS KHAN

Idris Khan (born 1978, Birmingham, UK) is an artist based in London.
His work comprises digital photographs that superimpose iconic text or image sets into a single frame; he explores the history of these items by creating multi-layered photographs.

Another artist that I think is an interesting reference is Idris Khan. As he overlays pictures of existing art, texts, architecture etc. he abstracts the way we usually would recognize the original work. I use the same technique just using my own photos creating moments from my own experiences.
