Romanian artist Iosif Király creates stunning photographic collages by carefully taping together real shots of different places. Each image turns out to be a construction of details which the artist had actually photographed in one place, and then combined to create new compositions.
James Nizam’s “Trace Heavens” is a series of black and white photographs depicting the transformation of darkened rooms into uncanny light sculptures. Manipulating sunlight via perforated and sliced walls, and with the aid of small mirrors fastened to ball joints for easy pivoting, Nizam creates images that bend our perception of reality.
Iwona Przybyla’s “90 Degrees” is an amazing typography book designed to display the entire alphabet in 3D letters. The letters are made of strings threaded through two sheets of paper at a 90 degree angle, creating three-dimensional string art as you open the pages.

For their final major project, Kingston first year Graphic Design & Photography students Luke Evans and and Josh Lake created human photograms by swallowing 35mm film, then expelling it, and recording the results.

Speaking about the project they say,” We wanted to bring our insides out, so we ate 35mm photographic film slides and let our bodies do the rest.”
