There is almost nothing Edu Monteiro wouldn’t put over his head for the sake of a self-portrait. He calls this collection “Sensorial Self-Portraits”. The somewhat disturbing series was started in 2009. He hides his face behind a mask made from found objects and materials, choosing them based on the sensory and aesthetic impact they make on the viewer. Bananas, feathers, coal, cigarettes, dead animals, and even an octopus have all guest-starred in Montiero’s photos, a refreshing change from the sheer amount of vapid selfies we see on social media each day. Scroll down to see them all and let us know in the cooments below if this is art or not. What do you think?
