Tamir Sher

Masters on 45s by Tamir Sher.

In his series Masters on 45s, Sher placed reproduced images of classic paintings on a turntable and photographed them at different speeds, creating a contemporary spin on the classics. The new version retains the same colors of the original piece and a vague resemblance of the image, but the blur of the spin makes them look hypnotic and surreal.
