Default would you get bored of your own framed photos?

One of the coolest things I have seen lately is the work by Robert
Weingarten "The portrait unbound". His goal is to produce a
portrait of someone but without them being in the image.

Interesting/dynamic compositions, but not "photography" per se.

More like "transparency collage".



Yes and in person they really PULL you into the image in 3 dimensions.
Not only do your eyes travel across the image, the seem to focus in
and out through the transparency? It's hard to describe but it's VERY
cool :-) I agree this has gotten away from "photography" and is
computer art? Not sure how you would define this.

Why not "photography", if that is the medium that captures the images used
in the collage? And, given the venue, it's not only "photography", but it's
"art".

This, too, is "photography", and I find Jerry's work to be quite artistic.
